Ukraine wants to attract American investors in strategic industries and get strong security guarantees, including from the United States, the head of the Presidential Office, Andriy Yermak, wrote in his Telegram channel on Sunday.
“The main message of President Vladimir Zelensky is that the situation in the world requires Europe’s strength and unity to be able to respond to any challenges. In addition, during meetings in Munich with U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance and other American officials, Ukraine received commitments of continued support and political will to achieve sustainable peace,” Yermak said.
He also noted that the president has made it clear that any plans prepared without Ukraine are unacceptable.
“Security guarantees must be strong, effective and real, and include the United States,” Yermak concluded.

The government will draw up a list of strategic industries and submit it to the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine for approval, Deputy Prime Minister for Strategic Industries Oleh Urusky has said.
“Surely, this should be formalized by a common document. It should be worked out by the government and submitted to the Verkhovna Rada for approval,” Urusky said in an exclusive interview with Interfax-Ukraine.
According to him, such a list will help determine the priorities of the government regarding support for industries, but the future Ministry of Strategic Industries will deal with all sectors without exception.
“On the other hand, the new ministry, which will be created, will become a ‘home’ for all sectors. The entire industry will be able to count on it,” Urusky said.
