Ukraine will receive monthly financial assistance from US authorities in the amount of approximately $ 1.5 billion per month to support government work. This was stated by First Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs Derek Hogan, Interfax-Ukraine reports on Tuesday, June 14.
“We have already allocated $ 1 billion for these purposes through various mechanisms, we intend to send approximately $ 1.5 billion more monthly for 4-5 months,” Hogan said at a seminar on Woodrow Wilson Research Center in Washington.
The official noted that direct support for the Ukrainian authorities is “one of the priorities” of President Joe Biden’s administration.
