Slovenia Weekly: Strong and continuous support

"Today is a special day in the relations between Slovenia and Ukraine. President Zelensky and I have signed a security agreement between the two allies. This is an important demonstration of our strong and continuous support for Ukraine," wrote Prime Minister Robert Golob on the signing of the agreement between Slovenia and Ukraine.

Prime Minister Robert Golob and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky signed a ten-year agreement on security cooperation and long-term support between the two countries on the sidelines of the European Political Community Summit near Oxford on Thursday. This agreement is a significant demonstration of continued and unwavering support for Ukraine, as Prime Minister Golob emphasised at the signing ceremony.

The newly signed agreement commits Slovenia to explore all possibilities to continue providing Ukraine with the necessary security and defence assistance. Slovenia provided Ukraine with 13 packages of military aid in 2022, 2023 and 2024 and intends to maintain the same level of military support in 2024 and beyond, according to the agreement.
