The European ​Union's (EU) foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas said ‌she expected "positive decisions" on the 90 billion ​euro ($105.94 billion) loan for Ukraine ⁠to be made on Wednesday (April 22, 2026).

This month's electoral defeat of Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orban, ‌Ukraine's harshest EU foe, could pave the way for the loan ‌that Kyiv urgently needs ‌to ⁠fund the war with Russia. The ⁠loan was originally agreed upon by all EU member states in December.

Europe’s dilemma: How to fund Ukraine?

"We expect some positive ​decisions tomorrow on ‌the 90 billion loan," Ms. Kallas told reporters on Tuesday (April 21, 2026), as EU Foreign Ministers gathered to meet in Luxembourg.

"Ukraine really ‌needs this loan and it's ​also a sign that Russia cannot outlast Ukraine. This is extremely ⁠important at this moment," she added.
