On 27 June, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, President of the European Council Charles Michel, and President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen signed the Joint Security Commitments between Ukraine and the EU, according to Ukraine’s President’s Office.
These agreements confirm a multilateral, long-term commitment by all 27 EU countries to supply Ukraine with military, financial, humanitarian, and political aid for ten years.
They also reaffirm the EU’s readiness to impose sanctions against Russia and take measures to prevent its circumvention, cooperate in countering hybrid and cyber threats, and ensure free navigation in the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov.
Under the new deals, the EU will open its Defense Innovation Office in Kyiv and cooperate with Ukraine in the defense industry.
The Joint Security Commitments with the EU complement the existing bilateral security agreements with member states. They also include the establishment of a consultation mechanism within 24 hours in case of possible future aggression.
