President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky called on leading managers of international companies to create jobs in Ukraine.
“I would very much like, as the President of Ukraine, that your companies consider the possibility of entering and finding their place in the Ukrainian economy. For us, these are, first of all, jobs. You understand that these are big challenges for 12 million people who have lost because of this bloody war of their homes, they left them, lost their jobs, their children lost schools, and Ukraine lost subjects that create a state, who are real citizens, pay taxes, etc.,” Zelensky said, speaking to attendees at the Yale SEO Summit on Wednesday.
“Jobs are very important. The jobs that companies like yours can offer by investing in our economy. This is an important step,” he added.
According to the head of state, it is also important that international companies invest in opening their offices in Ukraine.
“So that you find for yourself those layers of business that you are ready to find: from digitalization to energy. We are ready to talk about everything. But we are not ready to create a minimum tax system. You must understand us: we are talking about the restoration of Ukraine, which means that we should do it on finances. Comfortable conditions – yes, transparent conditions – yes, quick management regarding the start of your business in Ukraine – yes. This is support when all this is beneficial for both you and us,” the president said.
