Shunichi Suzuki Minister of Finance  \nJapan  \nStatement by  \nH.E. Shunichi Suzuki  \nMinister of Finance  \nJapan  \n105th Meeting of the Development Committee  \nApril 22, 2022  \nWashington, DC  \n1. Introduction  \nRussia’s aggression against Ukraine is a unilateral attempt to change the status quo by force and a blatant violation of international law that undermines the foundations of the international order. Moreover, atrocities against civilians are breaches of international humanitarian law and war crimes. Maintaining peace is indispensable for international economic and social cooperation, including development assistance for developing countries, and therefore, Russia's acts in violation of this are absolutely intolerable. Japan vehemently condemns these acts. Under such circumstances, the World Bank Group (WBG) promptly stopped all its programs in Russia and Belarus with immediate effect. Japan commends this action by the WBG.  \n2.  Support for Ukraine and surrounding countries  \nThe international community must urgently provide support to Ukraine, and therefore, Japan welcomes the WBG's immediate announcement of a US$3 billion support package. Russia's invasion of Ukraine has not only affected Ukraine, but its effects have spread to surrounding countries due to the displacement of evacuees, and to the entire world, including developing countries, through rises in energy and food prices, and through trade and financial channels. It is important to deliver support to the suffering affected people as soon as possible.  \nIn addition to the US$200 million emergency humanitarian assistance to Ukraine, Japan has already announced to provide a US$100 million loan as parallel financing to the World Bank’s support for Ukraine, and Japan is pleased to increase it to US$300 million. In addition, Japan supports the exceptional use of the funds of the International Development Association (IDA) to provide assistance to Ukraine and Moldova, and will continue to actively provide support in coordination with Multilateral Development Banks (MDBs), including the WBG, and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) .  \n3.  Strengthening of the WBG's financial capacities  \nJapan contributes to the strengthening of the WBG's financial capacities, so that the WBG can securely support sustainable and inclusive growth, in addition to the aforementioned emergency support to Ukraine and other countries as well as response to crises including COVID-19.  \n(1) IDA 20th Replenishment (IDA20)  \nThe unprecedented one-year advancement of IDA20, which is the largest replenishment package, agreed at the final meeting hosted by Japan in December last year, delivers a strong message of global solidarity. As a step of our continuous strong support, Japan announces that an act to provide JPY 420.6 billion (US$3 .84 billion) for IDA 20, including the contribution to Multilateral Debt Relief Initiative (MDRI), was unanimously enacted on March 30. Japan expects that IDA20 will provide strong support for lower income countries.  \n(2) Payments for the capital package of International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) and International Finance Corporation (IFC)  \nWith regard to IBRD and IFC, Japan has advanced payments for capital increase of the two institutions under the capital package agreed in 2018 ahead of the original schedule and recently completed the payments, in order to accelerate the strengthening of their financial capacities. Japan encourages other countries to complete their payments early and expects the capital package to be steadily implemented, including discussions toward graduation, in order to
