Ukraine's 2024 budget allocates nearly €25 billion to defense. However, parliamentarians anticipate higher actual spending by year-end. Foreign donors, including the EU and Germany, finance over half of Ukraine's state budget.
Ukraine's Ambassador to the UK, Valeriy Zaluzhnyy, stated that Russia has sufficient resources to continue attacks. He dismissed hopes for a quick end to the war. Zaluzhnyy characterized the conflict as a war of attrition.
