Since the war began, the EU and its Member States provided nearly €100 bn to support Ukraine. The paradigm shift is our €50 bn Ukraine Facility. Thank you, @Bundeskanzler and Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський, for hosting this meeting. The EU stands with Ukraine for as long as it takes.











My dear Ursula Ursula von der Leyen, I am so happy to congratulate you on your re-election as the President of the European Commission. Despite all the crises, your excellent leadership has brought us closer and made Europe stronger. You are the right person for the job.
