Quote: "The President of Ukraine has arrived at the Élysée Palace to meet with Emmanuel Macron. The French and Ukrainian presidents will attend the signing ceremony of two agreements, which provide for the distribution of €650 million to Ukraine in the form of loans and donations to support, in particular, important energy infrastructure assets that are the target of Russia's attacks," the message states.

On 6 June, Zelenskyy and his wife Olena arrived at Omaha Beach, where a ceremony to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the Allied landing in Normandy was held. 

On the same day, French President Emmanuel Macron announced the transfer of several French Mirage 2000-5 fighter jets to Ukraine and the training of additional Ukrainian military personnel as part of a new cooperation with Kyiv.
