Norway gives $103mn to Ukraine to secure electricity

Norway said Sunday that it would provide 1.1 billion kroner ($103 million) to Ukraine to help repair its energy infrastructure and secure the countrys electricity supply before next winter. Russia is carrying out massive, systematic attacks to paralyse the power grid, but Ukrainians are working day and night to maintain essential electricity supplies for the population, Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store said in a statement. According to new estimates, more than 50 percent of Ukraines power production capacity has been destroyed, the government said. We are in close dialogue with Ukraine on how it can use these funds most effectively.The post Norway gives $103mn to Ukraine to secure electricity appeared first on Guardian Nigeria News.
