Russia promised to allocate nearly 4.5 billion rubles for “support for small and medium-sized businesses” in Ukraine’s temporarily occupied territories (TOT) in 2026–2028. The funds are allegedly intended for the implementation of federal programs to support entrepreneurship.
This was reported by pro-Russian media.
According to Deputy Minister of Economic Development of Russia Tatyana Ilyushnikova, in the four regions (occupied territories of Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia and Kherson oblasts, – MOST) there are allegedly over 120 thousand small and medium-sized businesses, and to support businesses in 2023–2025 “almost 5.6 billion rubles were allocated”.
