Dutch pledge Ukraine reconstruction support as Zelenskyy visits
The package funds reconstruction, energy repairs and Dutch business support as Russia keeps targeting Ukraine’s infrastructure, officials said.
- On Wednesday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy met Dutch Prime Minister Rob Jetten in The Hague, where the government pledged €1.2 billion in non-military support over the next three years.
- This visit marks Zelenskyy's first trip to the Netherlands since Jetten's centre-right coalition gained power in February, with the Ukrainian leader calling his country a "priority" for the Dutch government.
- The government allocated €380 million for reconstruction next year, with additional funding for energy repairs, export credit insurance, and equipment like generators to support Ukraine's infrastructure against Russian strikes.
- Later on Wednesday, Zelenskyy will attend a reception with Dutch King Willem-Alexander at Huis ten Bosch, following the launch of a claims commission backed by 30 countries to assess war-related damage.
- Beyond next year's pledge, the Netherlands committed around €410 million annually in 2028 and 2029 to assist rebuilding efforts, including investments by Dutch companies in affected regions.
