The government of the Czech Republic will help Ukraine with the reconstruction of Dnipropetrovsk region.
The team of Ukraine’s infrastructure ministry held a meeting with the Commissioner of the Government of the Czech Republic for the Reconstruction of Ukraine Tomasz Kopechny and representatives of Czech business.
During the meeting, the parties discussed joint projects that will be implemented in Ukraine with the assistance of the Czech government, in particular within the framework of the permanent working group on the restoration of Dnipropetrovsk region.
Cooperation with local business and further joint work with international financial institutions are on the agenda.
As infrastructure minister Oleksandr Kubrakov noted, Ukraine already has a successful experience of cooperation with the Czech Republic, especially in the transport sector.
‘We synchronize our efforts in rebuilding Ukraine and welcome Czech business,’ the minister concluded.
Amendments to Ukraine’s enforcement proceedings legislation, initiated by the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine, have entered into force. Among other measures, the reform provides for the automated lifting of attachments on bank accounts immediately after debts in enforcement proceedings have been fully settled. The main practical benefit for citizens is the complete elimination of the need to contact an enforcement officer in person and wait for paper decisions once the debt has been paid.

In my previous column, I wrote about social innovations in Ukraine. Those innovations are part of civic resilience and the democratization of security, which Europe is paying close attention to right now.

It is looking for concrete ways to bring ordinary people into the work of defense and resistance.

Internationally recognized brands and financial institutions should direct capital to Ukraine now, not waiting for the hostilities to end. This was emphasized by Rinat Akhmetov, president of FC Shakhtar, during a working visit to UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland, where he met with UEFA President Aleksander Čeferin.
