Ukraine expects to receive another tranche of 4.2 billion euros from the European Union as part of the Ukraine Facility program. About this reported Prime Minister of Ukraine Denys Shmyhal during the government meeting, noting that the funds should arrive in the near future.
In 2024, Ukraine plans to attract a total of 16 billion euros from the EU under this program.
“We strictly adhere to the schedule for the implementation of all indicators. All the necessary reforms are being implemented, and we are adopting all the necessary changes. We have received assurances from our partners and international financial institutions that all external financing needs for this year will be covered”Shmyhal noted.
The Prime Minister also reminded that the state budget has already received 3.9 billion dollars of non-returnable aid from the United States. This year, Ukraine expects to receive $7.8 billion in budget support from the United States. These funds will be directed to the financing of non-military budget expenditures, in particular to the social obligations of the state, the payment of salaries to state employees, and the implementation of economic and humanitarian projects.
Shmyhal emphasized that the security and defense sector is financed exclusively from internal resources, and all taxes of citizens and businesses are directed to the needs of the Ukrainian army.
