‼️ EC downgrades forecast for Ukraine's GDP growth in 2025 to 2%, in 2026 - to 4.7%
The European Commission (EC) has worsened the forecast for Ukraine's GDP growth in 2025 to 2% from the 2.8% expected in November, and in 2026 - to 4.7% from 5.9%, according to a document published on Monday.
"In 2025, economic activity is forecast to decelerate further to 2%, as the war continues to weigh heavily on Ukraine’s productive capacity and business sentiment. Exports are set to weaken, reflecting subdued industrial output— particularly in energy-intensive sectors affected by high energy costs—and the closure of the Pokrovsk coal mine, a key supplier to the steel industry. Agricultural exports are also expected to decline due to lower stocks following the poor 2024 harvest caused by adverse weather conditions. At the same time, strong import demand for energy, coal, and materials related to defense and reconstruction is set to keep import levels elevated, resulting in a negative contribution of net exports to GDP growth," the report says.

‼️ Chairman of Ukraine’s Agency for Exclusion Zone Management: Demining of border areas of Chornobyl zone not a priority yet
Demining of the border areas of the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone is not yet a priority due to security risks from Belarus, said Hryhoriy Ischenko, Chairman of the State Agency for Exclusion Zone Management.
"I am not ready to name specific timeframes [for demining] - only specialists can do this. However, it should be taken into account that the exclusion zone has a 150 km border with the Republic of Belarus, from there Russian troops entered to occupy both Kyiv region and the exclusion zone, and aggression came from there," Ischenko said in an exclusive interview with the Interfax-Ukraine agency.
