Ukraine, EU signed Joint Security Commitments, which include military, financial, and humanitarian, aid for ten years

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.
