Following the submission by the Commission of the package of proposals on financial assistance to Ukraine, intensive consultations took place in the Council on the elements of that package, in particular the proposal for a regulation establishing the Reparations Loan to Ukraine, and the proposal for a regulation amending Regulation (EU, Euratom) 2020/2093. It appeared from those consultations that amending Regulation (EU, Euratom) 2020/2093 in order to allow the contingent liabilities linked to support to Ukraine to be backed by mobilising the necessary appropriations in the Union budget over and above the ceilings of the multiannual financial framework was an important element for some Member States and a condition of their support to the Reparations Loan to Ukraine. However, certain Member States were reluctant to support the possible expenditure entailed by such appropriations and the contingent liabilities connected with that loan.
