The Ukrainian government on August 15 announced the bill of deletion of fuel tax incentives.

Ukrainian Finance Minister Sergey Marchenko also acknowledged that next year's budget will be extremely tight due to the conflict situation.

Kiev confirmed that the Western need to support US $ 5 billion per month.

Aid and loans that the West committed to Ukraine are being supplied much slower than expected.

The US International Development Agency in mid -July announced that it would send an additional USD 1.7 billion, bringing the total budget of this agency to Ukraine to US $ 4 billion.

Minister Marchenko said that these money in the financial support package of US $ 7.5 billion as agreed, will be used to pay emergency expenses such as health and pensions.

Conflict with Russia caused Ukraine budget to exhaust, while Western aid drip, causing Kiev to struggle to find money to maintain the economy.

The fact that he relentlessly supported Ukraine is said to be part of the country's efforts to strengthen international images and resume Europe.
