Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky commemorated the third anniversary of the full-scale conflict with Russia, praising the “absolute heroism” of Ukrainians in defending their country against unprovoked Russian aggression. The event was marked by a summit in Kyiv, attended by top European leaders, who reaffirmed their support for Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.¹
The European Union committed an additional €1 billion in humanitarian aid for Ukraine, bringing the total EU contribution to €2.7 billion since the start of the conflict. The funds will support critical sectors such as healthcare, education, and protection services for the most vulnerable populations.
Meanwhile, the United States and Ukraine are nearing a critical minerals agreement, which could provide a significant economic boost to Ukraine and help reduce the country’s reliance on Russian supplies. The agreement would allow U.S. companies to invest in Ukraine’s natural resources, including essential minerals like neon, palladium, and rhenium.
As the conflict enters its fourth year, the international community remains committed to supporting Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity. Diplomatic efforts to achieve a lasting and just peace continue, with both Ukraine and Russia expressing a desire to end the war through negotiations.
