Belgium is allocating a 150 million euros aid package to Ukraine for four years aimed at rebuilding the war-torn country.

This was reported by the Belgian news agency Belga.

The aid will focus on critical infrastructure, from hospitals to shelters.

On 17 July, Belgian Prime Minister Alexander de Kroo, Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal and Belgian Minister of Development Cooperation and Urban Policy Caroline Gennez signed a cooperation agreement during a video-link ceremony that provides for investments in Ukraine's recovery worth €150 million over four years.

The agreement allows the Belgian cooperation agency Enabel to contribute to the reconstruction of the affected regions of Ukraine. The main activities are planned in Kyiv and Chernihiv regions, where Gennez visited in February this year to get acquainted with the situation.

The cooperation will include the restoration of critical infrastructure and the construction of comfortable shelters in schools. 

The first tranche of €20 million will be spent on decentralised energy installations in Kyiv and its suburbs before the next winter, with a focus on hospitals. Belgium will also support the installation of generators and solar panels in healthcare facilities and schools.

As The Gaze previously reported, Germany is allocating €10 million to rebuild Kyiv's Okhmatdyt children's hospital after the Russian attack. Lithuania previously donated €1 million for this purpose.
