The Netherlands on Monday announced a new aid package for Ukraine worth more than 200 million euros (around $221 million), Dutch Prime Minister Dick Schoof said. 

"The package is focused mainly on protecting and repairing the energy infrastructure and includes additional funding for humanitarian assistance," Schoof said as he met Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Zaporizhzhia, vowing to do "everything possible to help Ukraine keep going."

Zelenskyy thanked Schoof for the new package, saying they also discussed topics including the strengthening of Ukraine's air defense and talked about F-16s for Ukraine and all the necessary weapons for Ukrainian defense against the Russian forces.
