Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko has noted Estonia's contribution to overcoming the consequences of Russian aggression in Ukraine.

"The decisive actions of Estonia in the humanitarian component to overcome the consequences of aggression - the total amount that Estonia provided in the material, technical and humanitarian sphere exceeds 10 million euros," he said at a joint press conference with Estonian President Kersti Kaljulaid in Kyiv on Tuesday.

Poroshenko also noted that Ukraine regards Estonia not only as a reliable strategic and political partner and a partner in the security sphere, but also as an economic partner.

"Our cooperation in the economic sphere is very important... The trade turnover between our countries increased by almost 30% last year, and this is a very good thermometer of economic relations between our countries," he said.

He also announced the holding of a meeting of the Ukrainian-Estonian intergovernmental commission on economic and humanitarian cooperation.
