On 25 June 2026, the UK Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper announced nearly £290 million in support to strengthen Ukraine’s recovery and energy security at the Ukraine Recovery Conference in Gdańsk, the HM Government said. The government described the package as aimed at bolstering Ukraine’s energy infrastructure and supporting long-term economic growth amid Russia’s ongoing aggression.
The funding included a $210 million nuclear fuel supply deal, $65 million to support renewable energy investment, $1 million for judicial reform, and $1 million for a project development programme, according to the HM Government announcement. The measures were presented as part of a broader effort to reinforce Ukraine’s energy resilience and governance capacity.
The UK framed the commitment within its longer term assistance, noting total non-military support to Ukraine had reached $5.6 billion, cumulative, per the HM Government statement. In parallel, the European Parliament backed steps to streamline the movement of military equipment across the EU to deter aggression, with MEPs approving new rules as set out in a European Parliament press release on 23 June 2026.
The UK package added to a broader international financing push for Ukraine’s recovery. On the same day, the EU released a 3 billion euro loan tranche under a two year commitment, as reported by AP News. Together, these measures signaled sustained European backing for Ukraine’s energy stability, institutional resilience, and economic recovery.
