First Vice Prime Minister – Economic Development and Trade Minister Stepan Kubiv says that an increase in investments in Ukraine shows that investor confidence in the Ukrainian economy is growing.
“This year direct foreign investments amounted to more than $ 2 billion and the share of foreign investments total 22%. Investments into the real economy are growing. Confidence is growing,” he said at the annual report press conference, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.
At the same time, he stressed that support of domestic producers was one of the government’s priorities in 2017.
