The Australian Federation of Ukrainian Organisations warmly welcomes the announcement by the Federal Government today that Australia will gift 14 rigid hull boats to Ukraine to bolster its maritime and coastal defence.
The Deputy Prime Minister, Richard Marles, said “Ukraine has demonstrated its ability to thwart Russia’s continued attacks from the Black Sea. We are proud to contribute to these vital maritime defences with this new package.”
Thank you Minister Marles! Ukraine has many needs and the fight is far from over. But Australia’s support for Ukraine has helped push back against a criminal, genocidal invasion, uphold the rules-based global order, and support democracy and freedom.
