Discussion of a 45 billion euro loan to Kiev will increase tensions in the European Union, reports Politico. In the publication of the newspaper, it is noted that the discussion of this aid package coincides with the negotiations on the long-term budget of the European Union, which is "progressing hard". It should be noted that the size of the loan of 45 billion euros may change depending on the extent of support for Kyiv from NATO allies and the amount of funds that can be allocated from the EU fund.
