French President Emmanuel Macron will host Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Paris on 17 November to reaffirm France's long-term support for Ukraine, Macron's office said on Friday.
Zelenskyy's visit will be his ninth trip to France since the start of Russia's war with Ukraine in 2022.
The meeting will look to build on the momentum in terms of helping Ukraine following a meeting of Ukraine's 'Coalition of the Willing' allies last month, according to Macron's Elysee office.
France and Britain lead the 'Coalition of the Willing' group of countries supporting Ukraine. At the group's last meeting on 24 October, Ukraine's European allies said frozen Russian assets needed to be used quickly to fund support for Kyiv.
The Kremlin has said the proposal would represent an illegal seizure of Russian property and has said it would retaliate, without elaborating.
Macron and Zelenskyy will also discuss bilateral co-operation in areas such as energy, the economy and defence at their meeting.
Zelenskyy said on Friday that Russia had launched around 430 drones and 18 missiles in massive overnight attacks, while Russia's Black Sea port of Novorossiysk, a key outlet for Russian commodity shipments, suspended oil exports after what authorities said was a major Ukrainian drone attack.
