"I especially thank for the decision to maintain a high level of support and to allocate about 9 billion dollars for 2027 a year. I thank Jonas Gahr Støre, the government, and the entire Norwegian people for support from the first days of the full-scale Russian invasion," he added.
The Elizabeth Agreement is a strategic partnership between Ukraine and Norway, signed by 23 in August 2026 in Kyiv. It was named after the daughter of Prince Yaroslav the Wise — Elizabeth Yaroslavna, who in the 11th century became Queen of Norway, symbolizing historical ties between the two nations.
