On 13 November, in Kyiv, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Yevhen Perebyinis took part in an official handover ceremony marking the delivery of another humanitarian convoy of more than 20 vehicles to the Defence Forces of Ukraine. The vehicles were brought to Ukraine through the efforts of volunteers from the Danish organisation “Biler til Ukraine”.
Yevhen Perebyinis expressed his gratitude to the project's initiator and organiser, Jesper Lindholt, and to the volunteers of “Biler til Ukraine”, who, with this convoy, have delivered the 1,000th vehicle to Ukraine to support Ukrainian defenders. He also extended his sincere appreciation to the people of Denmark for their solidarity and unwavering support for Ukraine in its fight against Russian aggression.
The Deputy Minister emphasised that every vehicle donated makes a tangible contribution to the operational capabilities of Ukraine’s Defence Forces by enhancing the mobility of military units, facilitating the timely fulfilment of combat missions and, most importantly, helping save the lives of Ukrainian defenders and bringing Ukraine’s Victory closer.
Yevhen Perebyinis also highlighted the Danish Government’s steadfast support for Ukraine, including the announcement of its 32nd military assistance package and the provision of additional energy support to Ukrainian cities that continue to suffer from Russian attacks. Denmark remains one of Ukraine’s key partners, allocating 3.46% of its GDP in support of Ukraine – one of the highest shares worldwide.
The Deputy Minister further stressed that Ukraine highly values every expression of Denmark’s support, both at the government level and from civil society. Thanks to initiatives such as “Biler til Ukraine”, Ukrainians feel the solidarity and support of the Danish people every day as they fight for freedom, independence and a just peace.
