Ukraine Facility: what is known about the government's decision

The first to share the details was the head of the Ministry of Economy, Oleksiy Sobolev.

According to him, it is about the need to "update commitments", given the fact that 2 years have passed since the beginning of the preparation of the "Plan for Ukraine".

Sobolev also draws attention to the fact that some deadlines in the plan need to be extended, and some need to be shortened.

The possibility of amending the plan was discussed with the European Commission from the very beginning. It is provided for in the regulation establishing the Ukraine Facility, and our teams have been working together to agree on the amendments for the past few months.

As the head of the department noted, the scope and content of Kyiv's obligations to official Brussels remain the same as they were.

"We will continue to implement the plan in accordance with its updated version. The changes will apply to steps from the 3rd quarter of 2025, so we are already starting to move according to the new schedule," Sobolev added.
