    The Government continues to work with partners to attract the necessary funding. According to Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal, Ukraine has successfully fulfilled the indicators for the second quarter of 2024 for the Ukraine Facility programme.

    “We have a positive assessment from the European Commission. We are talking about reforms in the budget, customs, anti-corruption and energy sectors. We are counting on the next tranche from the EU in the amount of EUR 4.1 billion in September this year,” the Prime Minister said.

    In addition, the Government has decided to attract a USD 3.9 billion grant from the United States. The funds will be disbursed through the World Bank.

    According to the Prime Minister, the Government will use this money to pay salaries to rescuers, teachers and doctors, as well as for social support programmes. The grant is expected to be received in the near future.

    Denys Shmyhal also said that after long and hard negotiations, Ukraine had agreed with its creditors to restructure its external debt.

    “Thanks to the agreements reached, Ukraine will save USD 11.4 billion on its payments over the next three years. I am grateful to the team of the Ministry of Finance for this important work,” the Prime Minister said.
