The third payment covers excess profits accumulated during the first half of 2025.<\/p>\n<p> According to the approved distribution mechanism, 95% of this tranche will be channeled through the Ukraine Loan Cooperation Facility (ULCM), which assists in the repayment of EU macro-financial assistance loans and bilateral loans. The remaining 5% will go through the European Peace Facility (EPF) to meet Ukraine&#8217;s urgent military and defense needs.<\/p>\n<p> Recall that in the previous two tranches, 90% of the funds were channeled through the EPF and 10% through the Ukraine Facility. In total, the ULCM provides credit support in the amount of 45 billion euros, while the EPF ensures the supply of necessary weapons and equipment.<\/p>\n<p> Recall that in July, <a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/zamorozheni-aktyvy-rf-pratsiuiut-ukraina-otrymala-1-miliard-ievro-na-vidbudovu\/\">Ukraine received 1 billion euros from the European Union<\/a> in the form of profits from frozen Russian assets.<\/p>\n<p> As reported, <a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/finliandiia-postachatyme-ukraini-boieprypasy-koshtom-prybutkiv-vid-zamorozhenykh-aktyviv-rf\/\">the Finnish government will send ammunition to Ukraine<\/a> using profits from frozen Russian assets.<\/p>\n<p> Also follow <strong>\u201cPryamim\u201d<\/strong> on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pryamiy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Facebook<\/a> , <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/prm_ua\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Twitter<\/a> , <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/+rtV4dxYu2_cyNjVi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Telegram<\/a> , and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/pryamiy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Instagram<\/a> .<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The European Union has decided to transfer to Ukraine the third tranche of excess profits from frozen assets of the Central Bank of Russia, amounting to 1.6 billion euros.
