The Ukraine Recovery Conference in Gdańsk concluded with the signing of 160 agreements valued at over 10 billion euros. Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko, who led the delegation, announced these outcomes, which include an initial 3.2 billion euro tranche from a new EU financial instrument and 3.4 billion dollars. During the proceedings, Prime Minister Svyrydenko publicly expressed gratitude to Poland for its assistance following the Russian invasion, reportedly refraining from discussing sensitive historical issues. UK Vice Prime Minister David Lammy also stated at the conference that Britain's foreign policy, including its support for Ukraine, would remain consistent even after a change in prime minister. While some reports noted the "shadow of conflict" between Poland and Ukraine, others primarily focused on the financial results and international commitments.
