Turin, 26 April (LaPresse) – "The first tranche of the approved €90 billion European support loan will be allocated to domestic defence production for Ukraine. This includes drones and the entire military technology sector. Secondly, energy. By next winter, we must protect everything possible to the greatest extent possible.” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky wrote this on X. “To this end, in addition to local budgets, a portion of the funds will be allocated from the central budget,” he explained. “The funding will come, in particular, from these tranches of the €90 billion package. We plan to allocate several billion specifically to protecting the energy sector. We discussed this during meetings with European leaders in Cyprus. We have also held meetings in the Middle East and reached a series of agreements, particularly in the energy sector,” he added.
