U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Bridget Brink and EU Ambassador to Ukraine Matti Maasikas welcome the adoption by the Verkhovna Rada of the law On improving the activities of the Antimonopoly Committee of Ukraine (AMCU).
After the EU approved granting Ukraine the status of a candidate for joining the bloc in the summer of 2022, EU Ambassador to Ukraine Matti Maasikas warned that accession would require Kiev to carry out thorough work.
The European Investment Bank (EIB), the bank of the European Union, has signed an EU grant agreement for over €50 million with the State Agency for Restoration and Infrastructure Development of Ukraine in Kyiv. The funds will support the agency in the emergency acquisition of temporary bridges to improve mobility, helping the country surmount obstacles caused by Russian attacks by connecting the Ukrainian population with the aid and services they need.
