The European Commission and Germany Experts has organised a conference to discuss the post-war reconstruction of Ukraine on Tuesday in Berlin.
The Prime Minister of Ukraine, Denys Shmyhal is scheduled to be among those attending.
Shmyhal opened a German-Ukrainian business forum on rebuilding the war-torn nation in Berlin on Monday together with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz.
Earlier, Scholz and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said that the post-war reconstruction of Ukraine will be a “generational mission” that requires a strategy on the level of the “Marshall Plan” .
The United States financed reconstruction in European countries following World War II to the tune of billions of dollars between 1948 and 1952, through the Marshall Plan.
Scholz who is the current chair of the Group of Seven (G7) said Tuesday’s conference should be beacon of hope for Ukraine.
The point is that we are now sending a signal of hope, in the midst of the horror of war, that things are looking up again.
The International Expert Conference on the Recovery, Reconstruction and Modernisation of Ukraine will be opened by Scholz and von der Leyen.
Volodymr Zelensky, the Ukrainian President is scheduled to address participants with a keynote speech, according to the event website.
