Since the start of the full-scale invasion, Germany has provided Ukraine with more than 65 billion euros in aid and remains one of Kyiv’s key partners in the areas of security, defense production, and future reconstruction.

Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andriy Sibiga made this statement during a joint press conference with German Foreign Minister Johann Wadeful in Kyiv.

According to Sibiga, Germany became the first country to launch joint defense production on Ukrainian territory. The two countries are currently expanding their cooperation, particularly in the production of modern weapons and drones.

Ukraine is important to Germany not only in the realm of security but also as a strategic economic partner. I am confident that this cooperation will only grow

He also emphasized that Ukraine counts on Berlin’s continued support in the areas of defense, advancing European integration, and utilizing frozen Russian assets for Ukraine’s reconstruction.

Germany is number one in providing aid. We appreciate that. We look forward to continued support in the security sector, the development of the defense industry, the opening of negotiation chapters on EU accession, and the issue of frozen Russian assets
