KYIV. March 17 (Interfax-Ukraine) – The European Union plans to provide Ukraine with the second tranche of macro-financial assistance (MFA) in 2023 for EUR 1.5 billion next week, Vice-President of the European Commission Valdis Dombrovskis said on Twitter.
“We expect to make second MFA+ payment next week – EUR 1.5 billion in emergency support to help Ukraine meet immediate needs,” he said on Twitter on Friday.
