-

AMSTERDAM, Oct ‌28 (Reuters) - The Dutch government said ​on Wednesday it would give Ukraine €1.2 billion ($1.3 ⁠billion) in non-military support in the next three years, announcing the ​move a few hours ahead of a ‌visit by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy to The Hague.

Zelenskiy is expected in the ⁠Netherlands on Wednesday afternoon ⁠for meetings with Dutch Prime Minister Rob Jetten and other cabinet members, followed by a visit to Dutch ‌King Willem-Alexander, Jetten's office said.

The government ⁠pledged €380 million to help ‌reconstruction in Ukraine next ​year and around €410 million in both 2028 and 2029.

Part of the ‌money will be used ​for funds that ⁠support Dutch companies willing to ‌invest in the ⁠rebuilding of Ukraine, the government said.

Other support is intended for urgent repairs of ​Ukraine's energy ‌infrastructure and the supply of machines to ⁠Ukrainian industry.
