The main issue today will be to discuss the Plan for Ukraine presented by the Ukrainian government to see how reconstruction and reform should go hand in hand

- Borrell said.

"We have to continue to support Ukraine, first of all militarily, but yesterday we did it at a conference for the defense industry. And today we will see how we can mobilize 50 billion euros to support reforms in Ukraine and to support Ukraine as a country," the EU High Representative said.
