Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko announced this on Telegram, Ukrinform reports.
She noted that the Ukrainian government continues to work with American partners, involving leaders of international financial institutions, on the economic track of the process aimed at achieving a sustainable and just peace for Ukraine.
“Today we held a meeting with U.S. President’s envoys Jared Kushner and Steven Witkoff, President of the World Bank Ajay Banga, and BlackRock CEO Larry Fink. A joint working group has been established. Its primary task is to develop an action plan as quickly as possible,” Svyrydenko said.
The Ukrainian Prime Minister emphasized that the Ukrainian team is ready to work “as intensively as our American partners are prepared to.”
“Economic plans have every chance of success if the ironclad security guarantees, as discussed at the meeting with U.S. representatives, are put into effect,” she stressed.
As previously reported, President Volodymyr Zelensky urged the Coalition of the Willing countries to ensure security guarantees for Ukraine, cooperate under the PURL program, and move forward as quickly as possible on the use of frozen Russian assets.
