"Since the start of the full-scale war, since the open Russian aggression, Japan has provided Ukraine with more than $15 billion in assistance in various areas. This includes humanitarian, financial, and non-lethal support," Zhovkva said.

He noted that Japan is one of the global leaders in supporting Ukraine.

"I would like to separately note the $6 billion in assistance that your country has planned to allocate to Ukraine already this year," he said, adding that it is important that these funds, which will go toward budget support, be disbursed in the first half of the year.

He thanked Japan for its assistance with the rehabilitation of Ukrainian service members undergoing treatment in Japanese medical facilities.
