The precise allocation amount is EUR 16.2 billion, not EUR 16 billion exactly
The SAFE program is the Security Action for Europe instrument for defense funding
Hungary submitted an investment plan of EUR 17.4 billion, exceeding the preliminary EUR 16.2 billion allocation
The allocation has been frozen/blocked by the Commission due to rule of law concerns and Hungary's blocking of Ukraine aid
