🚢 At the same time, even with positive momentum, full export recovery will remain limited due to global trade instability and overall uncertainty.

💵 According to the World Bank, Ukraine’s total reconstruction needs have already reached $524 billion — nearly three times the country’s GDP last year.

🌍 In the event of escalation or prolonged war, analysts predict economic weakening. At the same time, international assistance remains critically important — especially from the U.S. and the European Union.
