[The European Commission plans to issue approximately €90 billion in bonds in the first half of 2026] The European Commission has announced plans to issue approximately €90 billion in bonds in the first half of 2026. The funds raised will be used to support Ukraine and provide loans to member states. These funds will be distributed through the 'NextGenerationEU' program and the 'European Peace Facility' mechanism, with up to €33 billion in loans to be provided to Ukraine between 2024 and 2027. Analysts point out that, against the backdrop of internal disagreements within the EU over using frozen Russian assets to support Ukraine, the bond issuance plan aims to provide Ukraine with continuous and stable financial support.
