Australia - Ukraine Relationship
Australia's bilateral relations with Ukraine have deepened substantially in recent years. In response to Russia's full-scale invasion in February 2022, Australia has worked with partners to support Ukraine and hold Russia to account. This includes committing military, economic, energy and humanitarian assistance to Ukraine; providing duty-free access for Ukrainian imports; prioritising visa applications from Ukrainian nationals; contributing to Ukraine's energy security, recovery and reconstruction efforts; restricting exports to Russia; and imposing over 1,200 sanctions on Russia and other countries supporting its invasion, including Belarus, Iran and North Korea.
Australia strongly supports Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity. We have contributed over $1.5 billion towards important defence, economic, energy and humanitarian assistance to Ukraine in response to Russia's illegal and immoral invasion on 24 February 2022. Australia's objective, along with our partners, is to empower Ukraine to achieve a just, fair and lasting peace.
