These economic and social recovery plans for Ukraine indicate that the size of the final price tag is not yet entirely clear. In any case, the scale of the stimulus package is large and will require a lot of planning and big political decisions. It is clear that the continuation of the war will inevitably lead to an increase in the resources needed for recovery. It makes the planning and implementation of the recovery a challenging planning problem, which inevitably involves a lot of uncertainties and risks. One critical factor will be the resources and personnel needs of the Ukrainian military in the future. It is obvious that, after the war, the state of readiness of the armed forces will have to be maintained for security reasons. In practice, this should mean that the resources of army personnel must also be used to rebuild the country.
