Ukraine currently spends around 165 million euros daily on the war against Russia, facing a significant funding deficit for defense. The financial situation is worsening, with a projected deficit of 23.4 billion euros by year-end. In the first eight months of 2026, Ukraine's defense expenditures reached nearly 36.4 billion euros, while revenues fell short of expectations. Russia's military spending is also high, estimated at 106.6 billion euros in the first half of 2026, complicating Ukraine's financial challenges. Ukrainian officials urge increased international support to sustain their war economy.
