And there is a risk that we can start playing only because the promised was not fulfilled," Timchenko stressed. According to him, like last year, the Russian Federation intensified air attacks on the energy system of Ukraine on the eve of the winter of 2024, seeking to leave people in darkness and cold. "The victory of Ukraine depends not only on people on the forefront, but also on how our economy survives. On how our industrial enterprises and ordinary businesses will work.
Electricity is equally important in the summer and winter," he added. The publication noted that in November the World Bank estimated the losses caused by the energy sector of Ukraine during the war, with more than 50% of the country's energy infrastructure was damaged in the winter of 2022/2023.
According to the head of DTEK, Ukraine was initially more prepared and able to protect its energy infrastructure in the first months of winter, but in recent weeks, "more and more drones and more missiles have achieved the goal. " The lack of ammunition deepens the congress, which delays the allocation of $ 60 billion of assistance, half of which should be spent on weapons. European ammunition and rockets are also in shortages, although EU capitals are currently trying to collect emergency care.
