According to the head of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine, this tranche was financed from profits from frozen assets of the Central Bank of Russia.

Against this background, Svyridenko expressed her gratitude to European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and European Commissioner Valdis Dombrovskis for their leadership and steadfastness.

"These funds mean saved lives, rebuilt cities, and a secure European future for Ukraine," she emphasized.

What is important to understand is that this money was transferred as part of the G7 Extraordinary Revenue Acceleration (ERA) initiative.

Its main goal is to provide Ukraine with financial resources through profits from Russia's frozen assets.

By the way, on September 10, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen stated the importance of urgently developing a new solution regarding Ukraine's military financing based on frozen Russian assets.
