New Financial Support for Ukraine
Ukraine has secured a new tranche of €4.05 billion, of which €1 billion is allocated through ERA Loans funded by frozen Russian assets, and €3.05 billion is under the Ukraine Facility aimed at recovery and integration.
This was announced by Prime Minister Julia Svyrydenko on her Telegram channel, as reported by Ukrinform.
"We have received €4.05 billion: €1 billion through ERA Loans funded by frozen assets, and €3.05 billion under the Ukraine Facility for recovery. This support reinforces both the state budget and the reconstruction process," she stated.
Svyrydenko also expressed gratitude to European partners for their support.
According to the Ministry of Finance, the funds will be directed towards urgent social and humanitarian expenditures of the state budget.
Within the framework of the Ukraine Facility, it is planned to attract about €12.5 billion this year, of which over €6.5 billion has already been received in the state budget.
To receive the next tranche from the EU, Ukraine has implemented necessary reforms required by the end of the first quarter of 2025. These include anti-corruption measures, public administration, regional policy, human capital development, the agri-food sector, digital transformation, environmental protection, and state asset management.
As the Ministry of Finance highlighted, the ERA mechanism provides for the allocation of $50 billion to Ukraine, secured by revenues from frozen Russian assets. The EU's contribution to this initiative amounts to €18.1 billion ($20 billion). In total, within the ERA initiative, the Ministry has already secured €9 billion from the European Union.
The European Union remains the largest donor of financial support to Ukraine, providing €57.5 billion over 3.5 years. Specifically, in the first eight months of 2025, the country received over €15.5 billion from the EU.
As previously reported by Ukrinform, Prime Minister Julia Svyrydenko stated that the government may seek additional funding from the International Monetary Fund.
