As part of the European Union’s Ukraine Facility plan, which allocates EUR 50 billion for the period 2024-2027, Ukraine receives financial support to meet macro-financial needs, including budgetary aid. To access this funding, Ukraine must meet specific criteria, one of which is the enactment of the draft law titled “On the Basic Principles of State Housing Policy,” which may be introduced this year.
