Zelenskyy: Grateful to Von der Leyen, the European Commission, and EU Member States for today’s €4.36 billion disbursement to Ukraine: €3.7 billion in macro-financial assistance and €660 million in defense support under the Ukraine Support Loan. The money will go toward some of the most pressing areas at the moment, such as strengthening Ukraine’s energy resilience and procuring drones, electronic warfare, and air defense assets. Supporting Ukraine now, ahead of the coming winter, means denying Russia any hope of plunging Ukraine into a blackout and destroying normal life. Thank you, Europe!
