> Calculations based on documents accompanying Ukraine’s draft 2027 budget indicate that continued hostilities could cost the country up to 6.8% of GDP—more than $15 billion—and $5.15 billion in budget revenue. Finance Ministry officials warn of worsening energy shortages, export declines and labor losses. Even the most optimistic scenario foresees a 30% electricity deficit and a 20% export drop.
