The European Commission has disbursed €3.47 billion to Ukraine through the defence window of the €90 billion Ukraine Support Loan. The payment was announced as part of the European Union’s continuing financial support for Ukraine during the war with Russia.
The funding is intended to support Ukraine’s defence requirements while maintaining the operation of public services and the wider state. The Commission said disbursements under the loan are linked to agreed arrangements and form part of a broader package of European assistance.
The payment follows earlier EU grants and loans provided through the Ukraine Facility and other financial instruments. European institutions have said further support will remain subject to the conditions and procedures agreed by the Council and European Parliament.
