Norway's support for Ukraine "sets a precedent for sustained support," Zelensky said in a video address to the Storting (the Scandinavian country's unicameral legislature).
Government revenue for Norway, a major oil and gas exporter, has risen to record levels since Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
The reason for this is the increase in the prices of natural gas, which it exports to Europe, notes Reuters, quoted by BTA.
The package, announced on February 6, is the largest aid program Norway has ever given to another country.
