Ukraine will ask G7 member countries to increase their contributions if the US Congress does not decide to help Ukraine.
The Minister of Finance Sergei Marchenko stated this during the One News telethon.
— Option B, as we have already noted, is to appeal to all G7 countries, if we do not have sufficient support from the US, for them to increase the size of their contributions to replace the US, — Marchenko reported.
He noted that it could be not only the G7 states, but also other countries, for example, Northern Europe, that support Ukraine.

Marchenko noted that Ukraine hopes that a solution will be found in the lower house (of Congress, — Ed.).
— And now there are reasons for this. We hope that direct budget support will continue, — he says.
In his opinion, US support is important for cooperation with the IMF, for forming a pool of trustworthy partners.
— We receive constant assurances from the US government that Ukraine will receive the funds. Therefore, this option is the main one, — says Marchenko.
