About it reported Head of the Budget Committee of Parliament Roksolana Podlas.
“After adopting changes to the budget this year, the planned deficit will be $ 42 billion (at the budget rate) and reason to believe that it will decrease next year, unfortunately, there is no. Accordingly, the need for external funding will remain large – close, or even over $ 40 billion,” she wrote.
According to her, at the expense of irreversible loans, the G7 and EU assistance will only partially cover this deficit.
“In part, this need will be covered by the so -called irreversible loans of the G7 (ERA Loans), partly by the EU by the EU as part of Ukraine Facility (I hope, on July 22, we will close all or most overdue obligations) and the IMF. At the same time, we have an uncovered need for external funding.
“In the conditions when Ukraine directs at least 66% of its budget for defense needs this year, the search for funding should not be only a problem of the Ukrainian government and the European Commission,” Podlas is convinced.
“I see the potential for deepening and expanding cooperation with the IMF in the example of other countries. Yes, in 2025 the IMF agreed the program of cooperation with Argentina for $ 20 billion, of which $ 12 billion – Initial Disbursmen (ie without structural beacons). She noted.
Even if the active fighting is stopped by the end of this year, the defense expenditures will remain high for another year, and added a sublate.
“But they will add huge expenditures for reconstruction – we all follow the Rapid Damage and Needs Assessment (RDNA4) of the World Bank, which indicates the need for $ 524 billion to recover in the next 10 years after the war is over,” said the head of the Budget Committee.
