UKRAINE TO DEVELOP COOPERATION WITH JAPAN

Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal has said that Ukraine expects to further develop cooperation with Japan in the spheres of economy, IT and culture, the press service of the government reported.
“I am sure that Japan, as one of the world’s largest investors, can also become one of the leaders in foreign direct investment in the Ukrainian economy,” Shmyhal said following a meeting with Japanese Ambassador to Ukraine Kuninori Matsuda.
According to the prime minister, the conclusion of a new intergovernmental convention on the avoidance of double taxation can contribute to attracting investments.
“The Prime Minister stressed the importance of effective implementation of joint projects, in particular, the reconstruction of the Bortnychi wastewater treatment plant, which was also noted by the Japanese Ambassador to Ukraine Kuninori Matsuda,” the press service said.
