Ukraine’s war with Russia is costing the country approximately $450 million a day, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha said. Sybiha made the remarks while speaking at the PISM Strategic Ark Conference in Poland. We are paying the heaviest price for it,” the minister said.

According to Sybiha, 2026 could be a decisive year for Ukraine in terms of achieving peace. However, he stressed that concluding the peace process without the involvement of the United States would not be realistic.
