URF supports the call of the EU leaders to intensify support for the energy sector of Ukraine
The leaders of the European Union consider it necessary to step up support for Ukraine’s energy sector and accelerate preparations for winterization.
“The European Council calls for an urgent intensification of support to the energy sector of Ukraine by the European Union and its Member States in coordination with partners. It invites the Commission, the High Representative and the Council to accelerate preparations for winter support to Ukraine,” the European Council’s conclusions adopted at the meeting read.
In addition, the European Council welcomed the outcome of the Ukraine Recovery Conference held on June 11 and 12, 2024 in Berlin.
“In view of the deteriorating humanitarian situation, especially in the frontline regions of Ukraine, it is crucial to continue to provide humanitarian and civil protection assistance, as well as to ensure humanitarian access. The European Union remains committed to supporting Ukraine’s recovery and reconstruction. In this context, following the Council’s positive assessment of the Ukraine Plan, the European Council welcomes the rapid disbursement of up to €1.89 billion in pre-financing to assist Ukraine in its recovery and reconstruction, which is particularly relevant in the energy sector,” the document says.
EU leaders also welcomed the recent extension of the mandate of the EU Advisory Mission Ukraine (EUAM).
“This will allow the mission to intensify its efforts in the liberated and adjacent territories of Ukraine to support the restoration of the rule of law and the return of public services to these areas,” the conclusions say.
In addition, the European Council welcomed the adoption of the negotiation framework and the first Intergovernmental Conference on Ukraine’s accession.
“The European Union will continue to work closely with Ukraine and support its reform efforts on the European path,” the EU leaders assured.
