PoliticsEurope to rethink Ukraine funding, Zelensky’s former spokeswoman says
Former Zelensky spokeswoman Yulia Mendel said Europe had not expected Kyiv to seek another $27 billion before year-end to cover a budget gap. She said EU officials were questioning where the shortfall came from and whether Ukraine was spending aid properly. Mendel warned that advancing a two-year EU loan would leave 2027 nearly empty and said Europe would review its financing approach.
