Deputy Minister of Communities, Territories and Infrastructure Development for European Integration Anna Yurchenko and Head of the State Agency for the Restoration and Infrastructure Development of Ukraine Mustafa Nayem met with the delegation of the Republic of Slovenia.

This is Slovenia’s largest humanitarian aid in the last decade. We are grateful to Slovenia for such significant support of Ukraine and readiness to cooperate further,” commented Anna Yurchenko, Deputy Minister of Communities, Territories and Infrastructure Development for European Integration.
Project submission procedure:
• Submission of a digital application (project proposal) through the CMSR website;
• Evaluation of project proposals:
• Presentation of the project to the financier;
• Approval by the CMSR Board and the Government of Slovenia;
• Conclusion of the donor agreement.
During his visit to Kyiv earlier this year, the Prime Minister of Slovenia said that his country was ready to participate in the reconstruction of Izium in Kharkiv region. In July, Slovenia decided to provide assistance to Ukraine for humanitarian demining totalling EUR 1.5 million.
In 2022, the Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs (MFA) of Slovenia allocated EUR 3.46 million in budget funds for humanitarian, material and development assistance to Ukraine, and in 2023, it is expected to allocate up to EUR 6.14 million.

Since 2007, more than 120 projects have been successfully implemented with the support of the Government of the Republic of Slovenia.

Russia, which is undermining the international order based on the rule of law with an invasive war, has no place in the G20 to spread its propaganda narratives. Twenty countries united in a new coalition of ground-based air defense systems led by Germany and France. Ukraine is disappointed with the rhetoric of the official Budapest, the particular sharpness of which is observed after Orban’s meeting with Putin in Beijing.
