France has committed an additional €200 million to advance Ukraine’s post-war recovery and accelerate its integration with the European Union, Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal announced following talks in Paris with French Prime Minister François Bayrou on June 3.

The Gaze reports on this with reference to Shmyhal's post on social media.

The new funding will be directed toward rebuilding key infrastructure and aligning Ukraine’s economy with EU standards. In addition, the French government will provide €1.5 billion in export credit guarantees to support Ukrainian trade and strategic investments.

“Our dialogue focused on deepening bilateral cooperation in critical areas such as defense, industrial development, and strategic raw materials,” Shmyhal said. “We are preparing major agreements, including plans to launch joint ventures and expand defense-industrial collaboration.”

The two leaders agreed to convene a joint intergovernmental meeting in the coming months and discussed the expansion of trade relations between the two countries.

Shmyhal emphasized that France remains a steadfast strategic partner. Since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion, France has delivered over €2 billion in direct budgetary aid and continues to provide essential humanitarian, energy, and military support, including air defense systems, artillery, and armored vehicles.

The Ukrainian Prime Minister expressed special appreciation to Bayrou for backing French companies willing to invest in Ukraine and contribute to its long-term reconstruction.

Shmyhal’s visit also included participation in the OECD Ministerial Council Meeting, where he reaffirmed Ukraine’s goal of joining the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development by 2026.

As The Gaze reported earlier, Ukraine is set to receive six modern ROCUS unmanned demining systems from France, designated for the State Emergency Service of Ukraine.
