Marchenko noted that Ukraine is ready to conduct a military campaign throughout 2023.

“Yes, we are ready. We actually have indicators in our budget that speak about this. Of course, there are different forms of intensity of the military campaign. But when we planned the budget for 2023, the most likely scenario was the continuation. of the war. In essence, the task now is to find resources,” said the head of the Ministry of Finance.
