Ukraine eyes $7.8bn in foreign aid by year-end

Marchenko told reporters in Kiev that Ukraine is counting on receiving $4.8 billion from international partners this month, and the rest of the sum in December, reports Xinhua news agency.

 

"December is the last month of the year and usually December expenses are the highest and above the monthly average. Therefore, of course, we are now looking for all the possibilities to pass through both November and December painlessly," the Minister said.

While commenting on the financing in January-March 2023, Marchenko said that Ukraine is going to send part of the announced assistance of 18 billion euros from the European Union to cover the budget gap.
