Short-term changes in the accounts of foreign economic activity provide clear signals regarding the immediate prospects of the country's economic development. Of course, the stability of key indicators and economic environment indexes helps to determine necessary measures aimed at economic recovery.

The large-scale Russian aggression caused significant casualties and destroyed thousands of residential and industrial buildings, disrupted economic ties (most of which will hardly be restored) both within the country and with foreign partners.

The indicators of Ukraine's balance of payments for the first five months of the year reflect large-scale changes in the structure of the foreign economic environment caused by the war, forming, at the same time, renewed development trends.
