Ukrainian MP Roksolana Pidlasa, serving as the head of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Budget, has confirmed that there are no risks to the planned defense spending, with revenue remaining stable following the state budget execution results for the first 10 months of 2025. Her remarks were made after the government reviewed the budget outcomes, which indicate that the financial commitments are being met without compromising on defense priorities. Pidlasa emphasized that the stability in revenue provides the government with the necessary financial flexibility to maintain its defense spending levels as planned.
The report highlighted that the state budget execution in the first 10 months of 2,025 has shown a strong adherence to the planned revenue collection, which has been a critical factor in ensuring that the defense budget remains unaffected by any financial shortfalls. Officials have been closely monitoring the budget performance to ensure that all planned expenditures, including those related to national security, are met without any disruptions. The statement by Pidlasa signals confidence in the government’s fiscal management and its ability to prioritize defense spending without jeopardizing overall financial stability.
As the government continues to allocate resources for defense, the stable revenue streams have provided a sense of security for the budgetary planning process. The commitment to maintain defense spending levels, even in the face of global economic uncertainties, underscores the government’s emphasis on national security. Pidlasa’s confirmation that there are no risks to the planned defense budget is seen as reassuring for both domestic and international stakeholders, who are closely tracking Ukraine’s economic and defense strategies.
