The deficit of the State Budget of Ukraine as a result of the first quarter is estimated at UAH 197 billion, in particular in March it amounted to UAH 103 billion. This is evidenced by the data of the State Treasury, writes Forbes.
Thus, the state budget expenditures in the first quarter amounted to 839.1 billion, which is 12% more than in the first quarter of 2023. In particular, in March - UAH 345.7 billion, which exceeded 15% last year.
For your part, it should be noted that the collapse of hryvnias and hyperinflation for Ukraine become a real scenario just because of the horrific budget deficit.
Moreover, there is no special hope for allies of Ukraine-the lack of financial assistance from international partners next year can amount to $ 10-15 billion, and the hidden additional deficit of the state budget this year is UAH 300-400 billion even without taking into account additional mobilization.
