The renovated Dnipro International Airport will become another step by the state towards a civilized and comfortable public life, the President's Office has reported on Facebook.

“The construction of a modern airport in Dnipro has begun. You will soon see a new 3.2 km runway, which will be equipped with modern navigation systems, weather and light-signaling equipment. The necessary funding for the implementation of this project in the amount of UAH 2 billion should be included into the state budget for next year," the report says.
