Parliament has approved amendments to Ukraine's 2025 State Budget, increasing security and defense spending by UAH 324.7 billion.
Prime Minister of Ukraine Yulia Svyrydenko expressed her gratitude to the MPs for supporting the changes to the State Budget. This will help fulfill obligations to defenders and ensure timely payment of salaries.
According to her, interest from seized russian assets will be spent on defense. "After all, part of these funds, UAH 294.3 billion, we ensure by the European share of ERA loans - non-repayable loans based on interest from frozen russian assets. The actives of the russian federation are used just as they should be - to support the Ukrainian Armed Forces," explained Yulia Svyrydenko.
