On behalf of Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani, Italy has allocated EUR 13 million to the Energy Support Fund for Ukraine.
“At a time when attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure are intensifying, this decision is an important step in efforts to restore energy systems damaged by the conflict. Italy’s contribution – one of the largest for a single country – will help stabilize the supply of electricity to millions of war-affected Ukrainians in this difficult time,” the Italian Foreign Ministry said on its website.
It is noted that with this contribution, Italy confirms its continued support for the resilience of Ukraine’s energy sector, in particular in connection with the conference on Ukraine’s recovery to be held in Rome next July.
