Czech Foreign Ministry to send power generators to Ukraine

The Czech Foreign Ministry will provide electric power generators to Ukraine, with spending capped at ten million crowns due to the current provisional budget, Foreign Minister Petr Macinka (Motorists) announced at a press conference in Prague on Monday.

According to Macinka, Czech diplomacy, in coordination with coalition partners, is responding to the critical situation in Ukraine, where Russian attacks have caused long-term electricity outages. The generators will be sent primarily to the Dnipropetrovsk region.

Ukrainian Prime Minister Yuliia Svyrydenkova thanked Czechia for the assistance in an evening post on the social network X, mentioning the Czech government, non-governmental organisations and the Czech public. Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha also expressed his gratitude to his Czech counterpart Macinka and to the entire Czech government.
