The Ministry for Foreign Affairs of Finland allocated €37.3 million ($41.3 million) to support the reconstruction of Ukraine.
The funding was provided on November 12, under the joint Strategic Investments and Support for Ukraine (SISU) program.

The €37.3 million ($41.3 million) decision adds to the broader SISU program, which aims to speed up Ukraine’s recovery and increase private sector investment in the country.
In October 2026, Finnvera and the European Commission signed a €240 million ($265.5 million) SISU guarantee agreement.
That agreement provides funding for investments aimed at strengthening Ukraine’s critical infrastructure and expands opportunities for Finnish companies to take part in rebuilding the country.
“The goal of the SISU program is to attract new investments to Ukraine. The program combines the experience of Finnish companies, Ukraine’s reconstruction needs, and financing opportunities from the EU,” Minister for Foreign Affairs Elina Valtonen stated.
“In this way, we establish cooperation between companies in sectors that are important for Ukraine. Finland strives to support Ukraine in the long term, and companies play an important role in the country’s recovery and its economic growth,” Valtonen added.
As a harsh winter looms, Ukraine faces a dangerously depleted air defense system while preparing for an expected surge in Russian energy strikes.
International supplies of Patriot interceptors were severely constrained, leaving Kyiv scrambling alongside European allies to secure hundreds of PAC-2 and PAC-3 missiles before the cold set in.
With the Ukrainian air defense intercepting only a fraction of incoming ballistic missiles, experts and officials warned that the upcoming winter threatened to bring severe energy disruptions and critical infrastructure challenges across the country.
