According to the data provided by the Government’s representative in the Parliament Taras Melnychuk in his telegram channel, the key focus of this project is the defense and security of Ukraine. More than half of all budget resources – UAH 1 trillion 685 billion – will be spent on this.
This amount is UAH 113 billion more than in 2023. There will be even more weapons and equipment. More drones, ammunition, missiles. Just like this year, every hryvnia of citizens’ and businesses’ taxes will go to support our Security and Defense Forces.
The second priority is the social sphere. Budget expenditures will amount to UAH 469 billion, which is 25 billion more than this year.
The third priority is healthcare and education. We are allocating UAH 179 billion for the education sector, which is UAH 23 billion more than this year. For healthcare, we will allocate UAH 202 billion, which is UAH 24 billion more than in 2023.
The fourth priority is to support veterans. We are doubling the expenditures under this program – from UAH 6.8 billion in 2023 to UAH 14.3 billion in the following year.
The fifth priority is to restore our economy. No tax increases are planned. The government is continuing soft loan programs, the eRobota program of non-refundable grants, and support for Ukrainian startups. We are also launching new programs for industrial parks, for the implementation of investment projects, and to support Ukrainian producers.
