MOSCOW, 5 Aug. Ukraine was on the verge of collapse due to the slowness of the West in providing it with financial assistance. Maria Repko, Deputy Executive Director of the Center for Economic Strategy of Ukraine, writes about this in an article for Foreign Policy. According to her, politicians in the US and Europe are enthusiastically discussing the «Marshall Plan» for the republic, not only because it gives hope to its inhabitants, but also because it does not have to be paid for.

In total, more than 31 billion euros of budget support from the most important donors should be provided to Ukraine. < …> But between February and June 28, only about 7.6 billion were actually sent,» she lamented. Meanwhile, the country's foreign exchange reserves are depleting. The authorities have asked Eurobond holders to suspend payments as servicing commercial debt becomes too heavy a burden on the budget, the specialist noted. As of the end of June, Ukraine's foreign exchange reserves amounted to $23 billion. The current spending rate means that the state will soon be on the verge of financial collapse if the flow of aid is not accelerated, Repko warned. :22 «Hitler and Eva Braun».

Their result coincided with the figures announced by Prime Minister Denys Shmygal. Timofei Milovanov, adviser to the head of the office of the President of Ukraine, in turn, said that $100 billion is needed for the reconstruction of the country every year. Since February 24, Russia has been conducting a special operation to denazify and demilitarize Ukraine. As President Vladimir Putin emphasized, its goal is «to protect people who have been subjected to abuse, genocide by the Kyiv regime for eight years.» >July 27, 18:12Britain shocked by electricity bills after Gazprom announcement
