Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Andrii Sybiha: "I held a productive exchange with my Irish colleague and friend Helen McEntee within the Gymnich meeting.

Our agenda included Ukraine’s path toward EU membership, Ireland’s continued support for Ukraine, strengthening sanctions pressure on Russia, energy assistance ahead of winter, and support for our veteran programs.

We also discussed the outcomes of Taoiseach Micheál Martin’s visit to Ukraine and the implementation of our leaders’ agreements.

I once again expressed gratitude to Ireland for its €10 million contribution for the modernisation of our military training centres.

We are grateful to Ireland for its strong leadership in the course of its Presidency of the Council of the EU".
