Lithuania has allocated 5 million euros to support the reconstruction of schools and kindergartens in Ukraine. This was announced by the Minister of Finance of Lithuania, Gintarė Skaistė, as reported by LRT.

She met in Kyiv with the Minister of Finance of Ukraine, Serhiy Marchenko, and the Chairman of the National Bank of Ukraine, Andriy Pysaruk.

During the visit, which focused heavily on the reconstruction of Ukraine and Lithuania's investments in the country, the minister announced that Lithuania is allocating 5 million euros to support the reconstruction of schools and kindergartens in Ukraine.
