This resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine defines the conditions for attracting funds from the Government of Japan in accordance with the Agreement between Ukraine and Japan, concluded on April 18, 2025. Financing is carried out through a loan agreement between the Minister of Finance of Ukraine and the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA). The resolution stipulates that the repayment and servicing of the loan will be carried out not at the expense of the state budget, but at the expense of other sources, in particular income from the frozen assets of the Russian Federation, in accordance with the Credit Cooperation Mechanism for Ukraine.
The structure of the resolution consists of two points. The first point defines the conditions for the transaction regarding the attraction of funds, including the sources of loan repayment. The second point obliges the Ministry of Finance to submit proposals for amendments to the schedule of the State Budget of Ukraine, if necessary.
The most important provision of the resolution is the determination of the sources of repayment of the loan attracted from the Government of Japan, namely the use of income from the frozen assets of the Russian Federation. This allows to avoid additional burden on the state budget of Ukraine.
