Briefings

European leaders are scheduled to meet in November 2026 to secure funding for Ukraine's 2027 needs, estimated at 70 million euros, while also planning the 2028-2034 community budget. Although Brussels plans to provide 45 million euros, this amount is deemed insufficient, prompting calls for alternative financing mechanisms. Ukraine's President Zelensky previously requested an additional 70 million euros for 2027, noting the war costs 155 million euros annually. Canada is currently negotiating a 90 million euro third-party contribution, and the EU is expected to finalize its financial framework before the 2027 elections.
