European Parliament supports loan assistance to Ukraine
The European Parliament has supported a €90 billion loan to Ukraine. This was announced by the President of the European Parliament Robert Metzol.
According to her, the funding should strengthen Ukraine's defence capabilities and help ensure the smooth operation of key state institutions.
What the funds will be used for
The money is expected to be used for:
Ukraine's defence needs
support for the functioning of public services
financial stability during the war period
What hinders the decision
Despite the support of the European Parliament, the final decision on changes to the EU budget has not yet been made.
According to available information, the process remains blocked due to Hungary's position.
