"A very productive meeting with the Mayor of Helsinki, Daniel Sazonov.

We discussed a wide range of issues regarding the further development of cooperation in the areas of civil protection, healthcare, public transportation, education, culture, and more. Ukraine needs technologies and practical solutions for developing the civil protection shelter network and their effective use in both wartime and peacetime.

I called for a more active involvement in Ukraine's reconstruction, and the development of cooperation between businesses, medical and educational institutions. I am grateful to the Mayor of Helsinki for participating in the International Conference on Ukraine's Reconstruction (URC2025) in Rome.

The Finnish capital provides ongoing assistance to its sister cities, Kyiv and Dnipro, and has become a home for many Ukrainians during the war.

We agreed to work together on new projects to support Ukrainian society. We discussed in detail the possibility of supplying used buses, cars, ambulances, rescue vehicles, medical and other equipment.

Kiitos Helsinki!" - Mykhailo Vydoinyk, Ambassador of Ukraine to Finland.
