EU leaders agree on $105 billion loan to secure Ukraine’s financing through 2027

"European leaders approved an interest-free loan for Ukraine, providing a financial lifeline
and securing the cash-strapped country's financing needs for at least the next two years,
EU Council President Antonio Costa said on Dec. 19.
"We have a deal. Decision to provide 90 billion euros ($105.5 billion) of support to Ukraine for 2026-27 approved. We committed, we delivered," Costa said in a post on social media.
EU officials had initially sought to underpin a large loan to Ukraine with frozen Russian assets, but after failing to secure a consensus, they opted for an alternative financing approach." KI
