I took the opportunity to thank the Danish government and people for their systematic support of the Ukrainian military,” Syrskyi noted. He emphasized that the partnership with Denmark remains significant for Kyiv.

Denmark has pledged significant long-term support to Ukraine, including a massive commitment through the Ukraine Fund which will provide over 8 billion euros in military support from 2023 to 2028. This includes a 10-year security agreement signed with Ukraine to support both military and civilian needs.
