On 6 November, Ukrainian Minister of Infrastructure Oleksandr Kubrakov and Danish Minister for Development Cooperation Dan Jørgensen held a meeting on Ukraine-Denmark cooperation in energy, business, and health protection sectors.
As a result of the meeting, Denmark’s minister announced a new aid package for Ukraine worth over $42 million to strengthen the country’s infrastructure amid Russia’s missile and drone attacks. A large part of the assistance would fund energy, social, and public projects in Mykolaiv Oblast, said Mayor of Mykolaiv Oleksandr Sienkevych.
Earlier, the Danish government had announced a new military aid package for Ukraine worth 3.7 billion Danish kroner (around $522 million), said the Danish Ministry of Defense.
