Ukraine received EUR 1 billion in macro-financial assistance from EU

“We have very positive news today. Ukraine received EUR 1 billion out of 9 billion macro-financial assistance approved by all the leaders of the EU member states. The European Council confirmed this decision twice. We expect to receive another 8 billion euros,” Ihor Zhovkva, Deputy Head of the President’s Office, said at a briefing, according to Ukrinform.

According to Mr Zhovkva, some EU member states, in particular Germany, are still blocking consideration of this issue.
