Diplomatic conference on the adoption of the Convention on the establishment of the International Compensation Commission for Ukraine – took part and addressed the participants. Today – and this year – things are being created for Ukraine that should have started a long time ago, at least as early as 2014.

We hope that the tribunal on Russian aggression will really begin its work – not only for us, but for all those who seek peace in Europe. We expect that all compensation mechanisms, from the Loss Register and the Compensation Commission to the actual payments, will come into action and gain strong and sufficient international support so that people can truly feel that any damage caused by the war can be compensated.

This war and Russia’s responsibility for it should become a clear example so that others understand that aggression should not be chosen.

Yesterday and today we had very good meetings with the Prime Minister of the Netherlands, Dick Schoof, we spoke with other leaders in Berlin, and today, too, everything was very substantive.

I am grateful to the Netherlands for all the defense and political support that Ukraine has received since the beginning of this invasion. In particular, I want to thank you for the recent defense package, which is 700 million euros for defense. Thank you. We appreciate that you are responsible for the current times in global politics, and this is reflected in your support for the PURL program that allows us to buy American weapons. These are necessary things, and above all, they are missiles for air defense, other weapons that are not available in Europe and that we can only buy now.

We are working to have a joint defense production, in particular of modern drones, in Ukraine and the Netherlands. Ukraine defends its independence and the lives of our people, and therefore every step in support is now of particular importance. Thanks to Dick Schoof and the Netherlands for their continued support of our people!
