The head of government hopes that after the war, Ukraine will not only restore what was destroyed, but will build a new country.
To defeat Russia, Ukraine needs weapons, sanctions against the Russian Federation, financial support and European integration. This was stated by Prime Minister Denys Shmygal at a donors’ conference in Warsaw on Thursday, May 5th.
He noted that Ukraine carries very high losses in a number of areas.
“Our losses – infrastructure, economic, people – are very high. More than $ 600 billion in direct losses. More than 5 million Ukrainians are forced to seek asylum abroad. More than 12 million Ukrainians have left their homes “A third of Ukrainian business has stopped,” said the Prime Minister of Ukraine.

Shmyhal stressed that Ukraine needs four things:
-
weapons to protect Ukraine and the whole of Europe from Russia;
-
penalties so that the occupying country could not continue to finance the war;
-
finance to support our economy;
-
European integration, because it is the choice of the Ukrainians themselves.
“Today is a donor conference, so I will focus on the issue of financing. Ukraine, together with our partners around the world, is preparing a Recovery Plan and the United24 Recovery Fund for Ukraine,” the prime minister said.
According to him, the government plans not only to restore everything destroyed by Russia, but on the contrary – to build a new European country.
“From green technologies to European construction standards. From agricultural processing to self-sufficiency in the energy sector. From the development of the military-industrial complex to climate modernization. From free European market up to the latest modern urban spaces, ”Shmygal said.
Ukraine, as the prime minister added, is beginning to recover now and is working hard to become a member of the European Union as soon as possible.
Earlier, President Volodymyr Zelensky spoke about how he sees the “Marshall Plan” for Ukraine.
