Tack Sverige och tack statssekreterare Janse för ert stöd och för gott samarbete!

Thank you to Diana Janse, Sweden’s State Secretary for International Trade, for joining us at an event last month to highlight the many benefits of this year’s Australia-EU announcements.

Ambassador Sagala was honoured to be joined by State Secretary Janse to deliver a briefing on how the Australia-EU Free Trade Agreement, the Australia-EU Security and Defence Partnership and Australia’s association to Horizon Europe from 2027 will deliver many more opportunities for closer ties between our people and our businesses.

These agreements will mean more jobs, more affordable goods and services, more choice for consumers and more connections between Australia and Sweden and the EU.

Ambassador Sagala appreciated the participation of so many business leaders and the support of Austrade and Business Sweden.

Australia stands with Ukraine. 🇦🇺 🇺🇦

The Australian Government will provide an additional $100 million in assistance to Ukraine for critical military equipment. This lasting commitment brings Australia’s overall support for Ukraine to over $1.8 billion, including more than $1.6 billion in military assistance since the start of the conflict.

Our ongoing contribution ensures that Ukraine is receiving the support it needs to make a tangible difference in its defence against Russia’s unjustified and unprovoked aggression.

In partnership with NATO, Australia is supporting Ukraine to secure the critical military equipment and capabilities it needs to defend itself, including air defence capabilities and munitions. Australia was proud to be the first non-NATO contributor to the Prioritised Ukraine Requirements List, alongside New Zealand.

The Australian Defence Force also continues to train Armed Forces of Ukraine personnel under Operation Kudu, with training now being conducted in Poland under the Norwegian led multinational Operation Legio.
