The European Commission stated that the Ukraine Recovery Conference 2026, co-hosted by Poland and Ukraine, served to underscore the European Union's ongoing support for Kyiv. President Ursula von der Leyen reaffirmed the EU's commitment to strengthening Ukraine's institutions, backing essential reforms, and ensuring a resilient, prosperous future for the nation.
The event took place in Gdańsk on 25 June 2026, just ten days after the formal opening of the first cluster of Ukraine's European Union accession negotiations. According to the European Commission, the conference marked a significant development in the collective efforts to assist Ukraine with its immediate defence needs and long-term recovery.
