The European Union has included €100 billion in its long-term budget for 2028–2034 to support Ukraine. The funds will be allocated through the Ukraine Facility, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced, APA reports citing European Pravda.
"We are allocating €100 billion for Ukraine," von der Leyen said during the presentation of the draft budget.
She noted that the Ukraine Facility, which had previously provided support to Ukraine, was funded with €50 billion — but those resources are gradually running out.
"These amounts are slowly but steadily decreasing, which is why we are proposing €100 billion to replenish the fund for Ukraine and support reconstruction," she explained.
It is important to note that the decision is not final. Once the draft budget is published, both the European Parliament and the European Council must take a position on it. The long-term budget is expected to be approved by the end of 2027.
