“You have been on our side since the beginning of Russia's full-scale invasion; you have helped us. We greatly appreciate the assistance provided to Ukraine by the government and the people of Japan. The total amount of nearly 12 billion dollars represents overall support for Ukraine during this war,” said Zelensky.
The president separately expressed gratitude for the allocation of 3 billion dollars as part of the G7 decision on a 50 billion dollar loan, which will be repaid using revenues from frozen Russian assets.
