Dnipropetrovsk Investment Agency keeps introducing about the level of Ukraine and Dnipropetrovsk region cooperation with other countries amid the unprovoked military aggression by the russian federation. For now, we propose an overview of the assistance provided by Armenia and the foreign trade volume figures, which is derived from DIABASE data.
The support provided by Armenia to Ukraine in its war against Russia is largely humanitarian and civic in character: without excessive publicity, but through concrete steps that strengthen the resilience of people and institutions. Such assistance was practical and focused primarily on social and medical needs, and was implemented through a combination of diplomatic opportunities and the active participation of the Armenian community in Ukraine. The main focus was on two areas: supporting education by providing children and educational institutions with equipment for distance learning, and medical care – delivering necessary supplies and equipment to hospitals and military hospitals that treat the wounded and depend on regular deliveries. In addition, humanitarian support was extended to Ukrainians temporarily staying in Armenia through initiatives and partnership programs aimed at meeting basic needs and facilitating adaptation.
At the same time, aid is not measured only in boxes and tons: diplomatic signals, participation in international accountability mechanisms, and voting on global platforms that shape the political context in support of Ukraine play an important role. In 2025, Armenia voted in favor of a resolution in the UN General Assembly that explicitly mentioned Russian aggression against Ukraine (and, more broadly, “security challenges” for Europe).
Armenia became a member state of the International Criminal Court on February 1, 2024 – a politically sensitive move in the context of the International Criminal Court’s orders against russia and the general issue of responsibility for war crimes and the illegal transfer of Ukrainian children. This is beneficial for Ukraine in that it expands the circle of countries where International Criminal Court decisions have practical force: international pressure is growing, opportunities for safe travel for those involved in the cases are narrowing, and the issue of responsibility for russia is receiving additional support at the international level.
In 2024, foreign trade between Ukraine and Armenia remained at the 2023 level, with a volume of $93.9 million. This indicates strengthening economic ties between the two countries and creates a basis for further cooperation. The main areas of export from Ukraine to Armenia are:
