EU sends €4.1 billion to Ukraine as part of aid progam – Shmyhal

Ukrainian prime minister Denys Shmyhal said on Wednesday that the European Union has transferred  €4.1 billion to Ukraine as part of the Ukraine Facility program.

This marks the second installment under the program, released after Ukraine met all requirements outlined in its National Plan.

In 2024 alone, Ukraine has received a total of €16.1 billion through this initiative. The Ukraine Facility program, designed to bolster the country’s resilience and recovery, envisions €50 billion in total funding by 2027.

“We thank the EU for its unwavering support, which is crucial for strengthening Ukraine’s economic resilience and driving transformation on the path to full EU membership,”

In just 1.5 months, Ukrainian specialists have created an innovative protective shell for the control modules of anti-aircraft missile systems (AMS) Patriot and Iris-T SLM. This development was another step in strengthening Ukraine’s defense capabilities, aimed at protecting key elements of the air defense system from debris damage.

Military serviceman of the International Legion for the Defense of Ukraine with the call sign “Paradox” is the crew commander of the American M113 armored personnel carrier. He is a master at using it and is constantly improving, because the legionnaire’s skills are tested every day in battle. You have to drive to the front lines, often under artillery fire and drone attacks.

Notorious supporter of the concept “in order for a cow to eat less and give more milk, it needs to be fed less and milked more” “Servant of the People” Danylo Hetmantsev, under the guise of “business requirements”, registered a draft law on the collection of VAT on all foreign purchases, regardless of their value. In other words, every Ukrainian, buying goods of any value and purpose abroad, when sending them to Ukraine, will have to pay an additional fifth part, or 20% of the cost of the goods.
