West provided Ukraine with $66 bln since launch of Russian asset income scheme

The stated amount of $66 bln does not include deliveries of military equipment, weapons and supplies

MOSCOW, June 24. /TASS/. Ukraine has received $66.044 bln from Western allies and international financial institutions (the IMF and the World Bank) since October 2024, when the program to use proceeds from frozen Russian assets was launched. Up to half of this amount has been generated directly from income earned on Russian assets, according to TASS calculations based on data from Ukraine's Finance Ministry.

Financial assistance to Ukraine is being provided under several programs, including ERA (the G7's Extraordinary Revenue Acceleration initiative, funded directly from proceeds generated by frozen Russian assets, with a total volume of $50 bln), the Ukraine Facility (a separate European Union program worth 50 bln euros), the Extended Fund Facility (special IMF programs for Ukraine), the World Bank programs, as well as financial assistance and loans provided by individual Western countries.

The stated amount of $66 bln does not include deliveries of military equipment, weapons and supplies, or Western countries' expenditures on training Ukrainian troops. As a rule, these expenditures are comparable in size to monthly financial assistance volumes.

At the same time, since late 2024, the United States has not provided direct financial assistance to Ukraine. Kiev has received the bulk of the aforementioned amount (about $50 bln) from the European Union under the ERA program (funded through proceeds from Russian assets) and the Ukraine Facility (funded from EU resources).

However, Kiev still lacks sufficient funds to continue military operations. Ukraine's international reserves have already fallen by 20% since the beginning of 2026.
