Shmyhal discusses with Slovak officials energy equipment for Ukraine

Prime Minister of Ukraine Denys Shmyhal discussed current needs of Ukraine’s energy sector with Slovakia’s government officials – Minister of Foreign Affairs Rastislav Káčer, Minister of Defense Jaroslav Naď and Minister of Economy Karel Hirman.

"We discussed our energy equipment needs. Russian shelling damaged or destroyed almost half of Ukraine's heat generation. ZNPP and Kakhovka HPP remain occupied. That is why Slovakia's support strengthens our stability in getting through the winter," Shmyhal wrote on Telegram.

According to him, Slovakia approved a new military aid package for Ukraine, which will include a demining system. Slovakia also plans to transfer about 300 generators. "I thanked for the strong support personally during the meeting with the delegation of Slovak government ministers," Shmyhal wrote.

The officials confirmed their intention to help Ukraine with weapons, finances, sanctions, as well as to support Ukraine on its path to EU.

Shmyhal thanked Prime Minister Eduard Heger and the Slovak people for helping Ukrainians.
