Amid Russia’s full scale invasion of Kiev, Ukraine needs about $14.1 billion this year to implement rapid recovery in war-affected areas, the Finance Ministry said.
Out of the amount, some $3.3 billion has been allocated from the state budget, and the government hopes to raise the remaining funds from donors and the private sector, Xinhua news agency quoted the Ministry as saying in a statement.
According to the statement, Ukraine plans to collect part of the money through the Multi-Agency Donor Coordination Platform.
This year, the government will focus on rapid recovery in such areas as energy infrastructure, humanitarian demining, and restoration of damaged housing.
The reconstruction of critical and social infrastructure, and support for small and medium-sized businesses are also among government priorities.
Launched on January 26, the Multi-Agency Donor Coordination Platform is aimed at coordinating existing and new mechanisms to support Ukraine’s budget, as well as rapid recovery and reconstruction, according to the statement.
