Overview

  • President Zelensky instructed envoys to secure arms supplies and support the expansion of Ukraine’s domestic defense production within the next six months.
  • Ambassadors will lead defined reconstruction projects to restore critical infrastructure and support Ukraine’s postwar recovery efforts abroad.
  • Envoys must implement legally binding mechanisms to hold Russia accountable and channel seized assets into Ukraine’s defense.
  • Supporting business interaction with Ukraine will serve as a key performance metric for embassies to attract investment and create jobs.
  • President Zelensky and Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha approved changes to several embassy leaderships and will convene the full ambassadorial summit on July 21 in Zaporizhzhia.
