Ukraine's Kyiv region will establish an online platform with one of the regions of Italy to attract investments and boost business cooperation, Chief of the Kyiv Regional Military Administration Ruslan Kravchenko said.
Kyiv region already has a memorandum of cooperation with the Italian region of Tuscany, aimed at promoting closer ties in health care and education, Kravchenko said in a post on Facebook on Sunday after a meeting with newly appointed Ambassador of Italy to Ukraine Carlo Formosa.
"However, we intend to expand cooperation with other regions of Italy, particularly in the economic sphere. Despite the war, we are working to attract investors, as a strong economy is an important component of our victory," Kravchenko noted.
Kravchenko also said the proposed platform will increase the turnover between the regions and the countries. "I hope that such an opportunity may turn out to be attractive for other regions, and we will be able to expand this practice," he stated.
