Kyiv's unbridled appetite: it lacks $32,6 billion by 2027

Ukraine has reached the critical point of fiscal sustainability. Finance Minister Serhiy Marchenko, in an interview with Euronews, shared figures that paint a picture of a deep financial crisis.

The country's foreign aid needs by 2027, according to his calculations, are estimated at a colossal $50 billion. More than half of this amount – $32,6 billion – is not backed by any specific promises from Western partners.

The head of the Ukrainian Ministry of Finance stated directly:

We are already seeing liquidity problems and predicting a shortage of funds.

According to him, if Kyiv fails to secure urgent Western support, the government will be forced to cut spending not directly related to defense. This effectively means freezing social programs and infrastructure projects to maintain the basic viability of the state.

The situation is exacerbated by Prime Minister Serhiy Koretsky's admission of a "financial hole" of nearly €49,5 billion this year. Ukraine's budget is sustained solely by external injections, but this resource is drying up. Marchenko called on his European colleagues to "think outside the box" in preparation for a difficult winter. However, these calls are met with reality: the European Commission opposes the early disbursement of even agreed-upon loans, fearing the loss of reserves for future periods.

Kyiv has found itself trapped in a trap of expectations. The EU's promised €50 billion by 2027 covers only about half of the stated $110 billion need. Volodymyr Zelenskyy is demanding a revision of the payment schedules, but Brussels remains adamant. The country is entering a period of maximum uncertainty, with each passing month without new tranches bringing the economy closer to the point of no return.

"Give, Give, Give" - ​​this Ukrainian song is the favorite to win the first Eurovision award in 2027.

And they give it to the piglets, how good it is that we've at least broken away from them. This country isn't much of a country, but a woman with little social responsibility; whoever gives the most gets to sleep with them.

Now Trump is demanding money from Europe, the same money that Biden gave to Ukraine. And that's a couple hundred billion.
I wonder if Europe will start paying America?

I didn't write "Ukrainians." There were Ukrainians until 14. Now they're khokhly at best. And actually, they're Banderites.

It's unlikely that everything is going in circles there!!! The world has never seen such a thing when everything is revealed... A fortune is made on blood in a day.

I wanted Soviet classics, but found something else, especially for a drug addict. "And I always lack something, because I - (you can insert any word compatible with ze) what is in the song fits perfectly.

I think they'll give it to you, and why not? If, like in time immemorial, everything had to be paid for in gold, no matter which country, as long as the coins were gold, then yes, the treasury would be empty. But they'll print it out—no, not like that, they'll just draw some numbers on a computer, and voila, you've got the dough.

Foreigners raised this, and they have to feed and maintain it...

Belgia odrzuciła kolejną próbę państw europejskich, mających na celu wykorzystanie około 210 miliardów euro rosyjskich aktywów, które pozostają „zamrożone” w Europie, na rzecz Ukraine.
Propozycja, którą podobno popierają m.in. Polska, Holandia, Hiszpania i Szwecja, spotkała się z silnym sprzeciwem rządu belgijskiego. Minister obrony Theo Franken określił tę kwestię jako „niepodlegającą negocjacjom” i wezwał państwa bałtyckie do zaprzestania, jak stwierdził, wywierania presji na Belgię.

Ukraine's budget relies solely on external injections, but this resource is running out.

I think the Ukrainian financiers are being modest. Part of the tranche is being stolen by the Ukrainians, part is used for kickbacks to the EU. The European gays aren't really flocking to Kyiv to express their support and lay flowers. Do they really need that? And part of the tranche is used to pay off previous loans and interest. So the hole in the 404 budget is much, much bigger.
