“We held a meeting at the level of the Reconstruction Fund and decided that new instruments will be created to accompany this reconstruction of Ukraine. An agreement has been signed on a 200 million euro fund that will be earmarked for those companies that will invest in Ukraine’s critical infrastructure to rebuild it,” Macron said during a joint press conference with Ukraine’s president in Paris on Friday evening.

At the same time, he said, 60 million euros from this fund will be directed to Ukraine’s energy sector and its priorities.
