Russia’s hybrid attacks are not just about Finland's security. This is about the security of the entire EU. This is why I was here today. To tell you that Europe stands by your side. For the security of the borders and to support the border regions.

Ukraine's reform & investment strategy offers a solid basis for a more modern, prosperous Ukraine, on its EU path. The @EU_Commission 's endorsement of the Ukraine Plan today is a big step forward. It paves the way for regular payments under the €50 billion Ukraine Facility.
