Japan has agreed to provide $4.5 billion in aid for Ukraine this year, part of a 10-year security deal signed by the two countries on Thursday, President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine said.<\/p>\n

The agreement significantly increases Japan\u2019s support for Ukraine at a critical moment in its war with Russia and underscores Japan\u2019s efforts to strengthen its security and diplomatic ties with Europe after the full-scale conflict began in 2022.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor Japan, this type of agreement and this level of support is a breakthrough,\u201d Mr. Zelensky said on social media<\/a>. \u201cWe see this and thank Japan for its unwavering solidarity.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr. Zelensky said Prime Minister Fumio Kishida of Japan had signed the pact as the leaders gathered for the Group of 7 summit discussed other plans to support Ukraine.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
