In any scenario, international cooperation and coordination of efforts are essential for Ukraine's victory in the war. The situation Ukraine is facing is unprecedented in recent decades: the aggressor has significant resources and is strengthening its cooperation with countries that have been sanctioned by the G7. The assistance of international donors is not just a financial issue, but an opportunity to support millions of Ukrainians in need and save the lives of thousands of soldiers
