According to Costa, the EU’s next step will be to secure Ukraine’s financial needs for 2026 and 2027. This approach aims to provide long-term support to Ukraine, enhancing the country’s stability and recovery.
This decision could lay the groundwork for further political and economic measures backing Ukraine and increase pressure on Russia to end the war.
