Quote: "We are not talking about administrative measures, only incentives. More security, better living conditions, and more opportunities.

There are programmes within the country to work towards this, such as eRecovery, eHouse, grants and affordable loans to start your own business."

Details: Shmyhal noted that the government has allocated UAH 9.3 billion (about US$240 million) from the Fund for Elimination of the Consequences of the Armed Aggression for Dnipropetrovsk, Zhytomyr, Zaporizhzhia, Kyiv, Mykolaiv, Odesa, Poltava, Rivne, Sumy, Kharkiv, Kherson, Cherkasy and Chernihiv oblasts.

These funds will be used to reconstruct residential buildings, schools, hospitals and critical infrastructure facilities.
