Spain is providing Ukraine with a new military aid package worth EUR 437 million to strengthen the country's defense capabilities, the Ukrainian president's press service said following a meeting between President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez in Madrid on Thursday.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called on Latin American leaders to provide urgent assistance to repair Ukraine's power grid, which has been repeatedly targeted by Russian attacks at the 30th Ibero-American summit in Madrid. Zelenskyy stressed the need for equipment compatible with Ukraine's power grid, emphasizing the importance of swift delivery.
The summit convened a 22-nation coalition of mainly Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking countries, including Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez, Honduran President Nasry Asfura, and UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres. Zelenskyy highlighted the significance of Latin America's growing diplomatic influence on the global stage, noting the increasing support for Ukraine's cause at the UN General Assembly.
