The aim of the Ukraine Facility, which entered into force on 1 March 2024, is to support Ukraine&#8217;s macro-financial stability and the functioning of its public administration.<\/p>\n<p>The Facility foresees up to \u20ac50 billion of stable financing, in grants and loans, to support Ukraine&#8217;s recovery, reconstruction, and modernisation for the period 2024 to 2027. Of this, up to \u20ac32 billion is indicatively earmarked to support reforms and investments set out in the Ukraine Plan, whereby disbursements will be conditioned to the delivery of identified indicators.With its decision, the EU Council concludes that Ukraine has satisfied the necessary conditions and reforms envisaged in the Ukraine Plan for receiving the funds, which will be disbursed from the Ukraine Facility.<\/p>\n<p>The plan for reforms emphasizes structural reforms and investments in the sectors with the largest growth potential. It addresses improvements in public administration, emphasising good governance, adherence to the rule of law and the fight against corruption and fraud. The Council has also stressed the importance of allocating the money as soon as possible, given the difficult fiscal situation in Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>In its assessment dated 15 April 2024, the Commission confirmed that the Ukraine Plan meets the criteria established by the Ukraine Facility Regulation, and presented an in-depth and extensive analysis covering the impact of the war of aggression of Russia on Ukraine, the macroeconomic outlook for the country, and challenges linked to Ukraine&#8217;s recovery, reconstruction and modernisation, including the need for external funding, increased labour force, government&#8217;s capacity to implement reforms as well as transparency and accountability at all stages.<\/p>\n<p>If all proposed reforms and investments are fully implemented, the estimate is that Ukraine&#8217;s GDP could increase by 6.2% by 2027 and by 14.2% by 2040 and could also lead to a reduction of the debt by about 10 percentage points of GDP by 2033. In May 2024 the Council concluded that the Ukraine Plan fulfilled the preconditions for Ukraine to receive up to \u20ac50 billion in support under the Ukraine Facility.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eubusiness.com\/news-eu\/ukraine-reconstruction-recovery-fund-68hx\/\">EUbusiness<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/vaufien\/eu-sends-first-eur-4-2-bn-reconstruction-payment-to-ukraine\/\">EU sends first EUR 4.2 bn reconstruction payment to Ukraine<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[274,559,606,607,608],"class_list":["post-132859","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-eu","tag-ukraine","tag-vau_viikkokatsaus","tag-vauen","tag-vaufien"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132859","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=132859"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132859\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=132859"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=132859"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=132859"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
