NATO is not scaling back assistance to Ukraine. Instead, it is building a second, more resilient supply system for the years ahead. A second-largest logistics hub for delivering arms to Ukraine will begin operations In Romania in January 2026, running in parallel with the key center in Rzeszow, Poland. That will make Romania the second strategic supply node for Ukraine as part of NATO’s expanded logistical support. The Alliance’s move underscores the failure of Russia’s attempts to isolate Ukraine and disrupt Western weapons deliveries. Plans for the new logistics center were reported by DefenseRomania , citing Maj. Gen. Mike Keller, deputy commander of the NATO Security Assistance and Training for Ukraine mission. He said the new hub in Romania will launch in January 2026 and become the second key logistics center for providing Ukraine with weapons, ammunition and military equipment. The new center will work alongside the existing hub in Rzeszow, Poland, which has served as the main transshipment point for military aid to Ukraine since the start of the full-scale war. Opening the Romanian hub is expected to significantly increase NATO’s logistics capacity on the eastern flank and reduce the strain on Polish infrastructure. For Russia, it means the collapse of any remaining illusions about “shutting off” channels of military assistance to Ukraine. According to NSATU, about 220,000 tons of military assistance - including weapons and ammunition - were delivered to Ukraine through NATO logistics structures in 2025 alone. Those volumes were moved by roughly 9,000 trucks, 1,800 railcars and nearly 500 strategic airlift flights, underscoring the industrial scale of support for Ukraine that Russia has been unable to halt. Priority categories of military aid include air defense systems, artillery, anti-tank mines and electronic warfare equipment - capabilities NATO views as critical for Ukraine’s forces amid the protracted war launched by Russia. The Polish hub in Rzeszow will continue to function as the primary transit point, largely due to its proximity to the Ukrainian border - about 70–100 kilometers. Rzeszow Airport is considered the most protected facility in Europe, defended by U.S. and German Patriot systems, Norwegian NASAMS batteries and fifth-generation F-35 fighters deployed in the region.
