This makes a total of some €57+ million to date from Foreign Affairs (Votes 27 and 28) and forms part of a wider Government effort in support of Ukraine.
Other Government Departments have made contributions including in-kind and monetary supports to Ukraine, to the value of approximately €11.5 million.
Ireland has also committed approximately €122 million to Ukraine under the EPF in 2022 and 2023, with approximately €10 million having been disbursed to date, in line with the reimbursement schedule agreed by Member States in Brussels.
This brings the estimated total value of bilateral assistance (separate to EU contributions) for Ukraine committed by Ireland to €190.5 million, consisting of €68.5 million in stabilisation and humanitarian support and approximately €122 million of non-lethal military assistance via the European Peace Facility.
In 2023, Ireland has committed to provide €32 million in support to Ukraine and neighbouring countries. This will include humanitarian support, as well as funding as needed through the UN and other multilateral and IFI partners that are providing support for peacebuilding, recovery and reconstruction for Ukraine and the neighbourhood.
Alongside this, Ireland has committed an additional €43 million to addressing the wider consequences of the war globally, including food insecurity increasing fragility, and acute child malnutrition. In total, Ireland will provide over €75 million in support to Ukraine, its neighbours and to address the wider consequences of the war in 2023.
