Ukraine’s fight for freedom continues. And so does our support. In Kyiv, I was glad to hand over equipment worth €6.5 million to Ukrainian services. This includes drone jamming systems, minibuses and four-wheel drive vehicles to reach remote and inaccessible locations.

A strong and important conversation with President Zelenskyy in Kyiv yesterday. Predictable and stable support to Ukraine is vital. For Ukraine, for Europe, and for our shared values. We must continue to work on long-term solutions, including leveraging frozen Russian assets.
