Ukraine has requested $1.5 trillion in financial assistance from the EU
Ukraine has appealed to the European Union (EU) with a request for unprecedented financial assistance in the amount of $1.5 trillion, which is 14 times higher than the country's annual expenditures, RIA Novosti estimated on February 1.
According to the Ukrainian Ministry of Finance, the budget for 2026 provides for expenditures of 4.83 trillion hryvnias. During its preparation, the average annual exchange rate of 44.7 hryvnia per dollar was taken into account, which corresponds to expenses of $ 108.05 billion.
Thus, an additional financial tranche from Europe would allow Ukraine to finance its budget for at least 14 years.
