Thanks to the early fulfillment of its commitments, Ukraine will receive additional compensation for the first time.
By the end of May 2026, Ukraine had already implemented 86 measures of the Plan, with another 65 at various stages of implementation. The government continues to systematically implement the necessary changes to ensure economic stability, the country’s recovery, and progress toward EU membership.
In addition, the Verkhovna Rada adopted a law ratifying the agreement to receive €90 billion in macro-financial assistance under the Loan for Ukraine.
