If member states agree to the initiative, payments could start in 2028.<\/p>\n<p> It is expected that the format of the new assistance will be similar to the existing one: it involves grants and soft loans that the European Commission provides directly to the Ukrainian state.<\/p>\n<p> However, the fund is still under discussion &#8211; other financing options are being considered in parallel. The future multi-year financial plan is to be presented in more detail on July 16. However, final decisions may be made later.<\/p>\n<p> The European Commission has previously stressed that current financial commitments should be sufficient until 2027. But due to further defense spending, a slowdown in the economy, and reduced external support, the risks of Ukraine&#8217;s budget deficit are already increasing.<\/p>\n<p> European Commissioner for Economic Affairs Valdis Dombrovskis confirmed that active work is underway on new support scenarios. According to him, the EU is ready to continue to help Ukraine: &#8220;as much as necessary.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p> He also reported that the European Union is analyzing the possibility of using proceeds from frozen Russian assets as another financing tool, but final decisions will also depend on the IMF&#8217;s assessment of Ukraine&#8217;s financial needs.<\/p>\n<p> Recall that the European Union has already <a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/snariady-vid-krain-yes-skilky-otrymaie-ukraina\/\">declared commitments for 80 percent of the production of 2 million artillery shells for Ukraine.<\/a><\/p>\n<p> As reported, the European Union is developing a plan to increase aid to Ukraine.
