Today, we have received the first tranche of €4.5 billion in transitional financing under the Ukraine Facility, and we expect to receive the second tranche of €1.5 billion in April of this year. While recovery and reforms are crucial for Ukraine's future, only by financing all priority state budget expenditures will Ukraine be able to keep its economy safe throughout the war and recover to become self-sufficient and successful. Therefore, external financing continues to play an important role
Marchenko thanked the partners for the key role of the European Union in attracting financial resources for Ukraine and noted that since February 2022, the EU has provided Ukraine with more than €30 billion for the priority needs of the state budget, which has allowed the Cabinet of Ministers to fulfill its obligations to citizens and direct its own budget resources to support the armed forces.
