The military will practice in the Lviv region. The exercise will end on September 26. Although participation in the Rapid Trident 2014 NATO member countries are not formally a NATO exercise.

On the other hand, last week – with the participation of naval forces, among others, Ukraine and the United States – held International Sea Breeze 2014 maneuvers in the north-western part of the Black Sea. The exercises involved 12 ships and support units from different countries, as well as airplanes and helicopters of the armed forces of Ukraine.

During the recent NATO summit the leaders of 28 countries declared their solidarity with Kiev. For help Ukraine allocated 15 million euros. The Alliance also pledged to help in areas such as cyber security, logistics, chain of command, control and communications, as well as the rehabilitation of veterans.
The plans also include the establishment of a trust fund to assist in the modernization of the Ukrainian army. The fund is to be used to reform the Ukrainian army headquarters, logistics support, improve cybersecurity and rehabilitation of veterans. Secretary General of NATO Anders Fogh Rasmussen said that NATO as an alliance can not provide Ukraine military equipment, but may do so in individual Member States.
