Zelensky invites foreign investors to Ukraine

President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky invited foreign investors to visit Ukraine and invest in its economy, and promised to contribute to their work.

Zelensky posted the corresponding video on his Facebook page on Thursday.

“I invite you, investors from any part of the world, to join the opportunity [to invest in the Ukrainian economy] early and enjoy getting amazing returns on your investments. Your success will be our success. And that is why me and my team will stand for every and each foreign investor, for every new job you will create and for every dollar you pay as taxes,“ the president stressed.

Zelensky noted that he wanted Ukraine to become one of the fast-growing countries in Europe. “My vision is to have Ukraine as one of the fastest growing emerging economies in Europe. I lead this vision and my new professional and technocratic government will execute accordingly. Welcome to the country of freedom. Welcome to Ukraine,” he said.

According to the president, Ukraine has many investment opportunities, as it is ideally located geographically and has a large population. “Me and my team in the new government and parliament want to inject economic growth into the country’s DNA. We need to change a lot here, fire nonprofessionals and hire professional ones, deregulate industries, simplify rules, improve the infrastructure and many other things,“ he stressed.

Zelensky noted that changes took time. “Once we get there most of markets and opportunities will be taken by someone else,“ he said.
