The last month of the year brought record revenues to the state budget of Ukraine.

December 2022 brought two records in Ukraine’s history at once, foreign aid to Ukraine and the state budget’s total monthly funding amount for a month, the parliamentary finance committee reported. In December, Ukraine received $5.5B, or more than UAH 200B, in international loans and grants for the budget. This is a record during the war; the previous largest amount was UAH 172B ($4.7B) in August. The total revenue for December is also an absolute record in Ukraine’s history: more than UAH 365B ($10B) per month. Moreover, according to President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Ukraine is expecting the first tranche of a $19B support package from the EU in January, following a call with Ursula von der Leyen.
