Quote: “The cost of this war as of now is a challenge for us. The price of one year is [USD] 120 billion. Sixty billion comes from the Ukrainian budget. And I need to find 60 [billion] for next year.”

Details: Zelenskyy added that ending the war remains Ukraine’s top priority.

Quote: “In any case, plan A is to end the war, plan B is 120 billion. This is a big challenge. I am not saying that we will need [so much money] during peacetime – a ceasefire or under security guarantees – that we will need such large sums of money during 10 years. But either way you must understand the scale of this issue.”
