Kiev requires €60 billion in foreign support this year — German defense minister

German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius stated that Ukraine requires €60 billion in foreign assistance this year to meet its needs.

"Just this year, Ukraine’s requirements for external support to cover its needs amount to €60 billion. Therefore, every billion from both sources, bilateral, meaning national, and European, matters," Pistorius said upon arriving at a regular meeting of EU defense ministers in Brussels.

He shares the concerns of some countries that an EU loan to Ukraine could lead to a reduction in bilateral support for Kiev. "I naturally share this concern because we need these funds on top of what already exists," the minister indicated. "It’s specifically additional money that we need," Pistorius concluded.
