The meeting also focused on Kyiv's needs for pumping equipment, generators, and energy storage systems, as well as opportunities for Dutch manufacturers to participate in temporary bridge construction projects.

Another area of cooperation is the development of ties between the ports of Odesa and Rotterdam. Amid continued Russian attacks on Ukraine's port infrastructure, such cooperation is important for maintaining international logistics routes. The minister also proposed that the Netherlands join the Ukraine Transport Support Fund.

As previously reported, the Netherlands has delivered diesel generators, portable generators, power transformers, and insulators to Ukrainian regions, with more than 50 tonnes of energy equipment shipped to the Khmelnytskyi, Poltava, Chernivtsi, Dnipropetrovsk, Chernihiv, and Mykolaiv regions.
