Ukraine Facility is a tool for supporting the economic development and recovery of Ukraine on its way to join the EU.
As part of the Ukraine Facility, there is a bridging financing mechanism (Bridge financing), which, after the signing of relevant international agreements, will open the way to obtaining the necessary financing in a shorter period of time before the start of the Facility.
On February 26, the European Parliament supported the decision on the Ukraine Facility. The decision of the EU Council is final.
