The European Union is considering allocating up to €100 billion in its future budget for a new cooperation program with Ukraine.
European Council President António Costa said this in an interview with Ukrinform.
He noted that the new political season in the EU, which begins in September, will be marked by the adoption of the European Union’s next important budget and progress in the enlargement process for Ukraine, Moldova and the Western Balkans.
Regarding funding for support to Ukraine in the future budget, Costa said: “Right now, this is under discussion by the member states, but the European Commission's proposal includes a new program of cooperation with Ukraine worth up to 100 billion euros.”
