International partners continue to allocate billions of euros to support Ukraine across various sectors, from defense to food.

The Dutch government plans to reserve €3.5B to continue supporting Ukraine in 2026, according to Prime Minister Dick Schoof. The funds will provide assistance next year, but they can be utilized this year if necessary. The Netherlands has already allocated a similar amount for support through 2025. Schoof specified that €700M will be directed toward investments in drone production for Ukraine, including at facilities in Ukraine.

Meanwhile, Australia has contributed an additional €6M to the Ukraine Energy Support Fund. These funds will be used to repair equipment damaged in Russian attacks. Australia has already given about €18M to the fund. Overall, announced contributions exceed €1B.

In turn, Austria has supported a food initiative to supply agricultural products to countries facing famine, known as Grain from Ukraine, by contributing €2M. The countries discussed cooperation in the agricultural sector, trade development, and mechanisms for insuring military risks. Austria remains a significant trading partner for Ukraine, with last year’s bilateral food trade reaching $210M.
