Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has announced that once martial law is lifted, substantial funds from various sources will be allocated to revitalizing Ukraine’s economy, with a primary focus on major reconstruction projects.
“If martial law is lifted, Ukraine will primarily focus its spending on rebuilding the state. If I may put it this way, a significant influx of funds will flow into the country – from businesses, from frozen Russian assets, and from our budget. Currently, our defense sector expenditures amount to UAH 1.4 trillion. This is substantial money. Naturally, a portion of these funds will be directed immediately toward reconstruction. People will also come here to work,” Zelensky said.
He emphasized that large-scale reconstruction projects would generate a considerable number of jobs.
“It is preferable that these are Ukrainians, and I think they will be Ukrainians,” Zelensky said. (Ukrinform)
