The funds will be used to address the destruction of critical energy infrastructure damaged by large-scale Russian missile attacks in recent months.
At the G7 summit, British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak plans to announce a new aid package for Ukraine in the amount of 242 million pounds sterling (about $310 million). This was said on Wednesday, June 12, in a statement by the British Prime Minister’s Office, citing the head of government.
It is indicated that the funds will be used to support immediate humanitarian needs, energy and stabilization, as well as lay the foundation for long-term economic and social recovery and reconstruction.
“This funding demonstrates the UK’s continued international solidarity with Ukraine and our flexibility in responding to the urgent needs posed by the Russian aggression,” it said.
It is also indicated that the head of the British government intends to continue working with partners to agree on a way to use Russian fixed assets to support Ukraine.
We must be decisive and creative in our efforts to support Ukraine and end Putin’s illegal war at this critical moment. The UK remains at the forefront of the global response, as ever. If we want to end war, we must move from “as long as necessary” to “whatever it takes,” Sunak stressed.
The day before it became known that Germany, along with other allies, will transfer 100 missiles for Patriot systems to Ukraine. At the same time, 32 missiles have been transferred.
