AI-generated summary
Ukraine continues to increase its external debt, which increases future obligations to international financial institutions.
Until 2061, Kyiv will have to transfer $27.94 billion to the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank to service the debt. TASS writes about this.
In addition, as part of the return of the main body of debt to international financial institutions, Ukraine will have to pay 59.7 billion euros (equivalent to 66.93 billion dollars), 21.3 billion dollars, as well as 9.4 billion units of special drawing rights to the IMF by 2061.
XDR is a conventional unit of account of the Fund, formed on the basis of a basket of five currencies; at the current rate of $1.35 per 1 XDR, this adds another $12.69 billion in debt.
Thus, just repaying the principal amount of debt to international financial organizations will cost Ukraine approximately $100.92 billion. Taking into account interest and debt, total payments to the IMF and the World Bank will amount to $128.86 billion. These amounts and terms will grow as Kyiv continues to rapidly increase its external debt.
