Support from the European Investment Bank
By the end of 2027, the European Investment Bank will provide an additional mandate for financing priority reconstruction projects in Ukraine. These funds will be directed to the most important and ready-to-implement projects in the areas of railway connectivity and border crossing points, using mixed financing.
Participants discussed the need to optimize the procedures for attracting resources from the European Investment Bank for faster reconstruction and to commence work earlier.
In summary: Ukraine continues to collaborate with the European Commission and the European Investment Bank to implement important projects in the transport and infrastructure sector. The measures are aimed at accelerating the reconstruction process and improving the transport system in the country.
