Ukraine needs $750bn for a recovery plan in the wake of Russia’s invasion according to the Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal.
Shmyhal told the Ukraine Recovery Conference, currently taking place in Switzerland, there had been over $100bn of direct damage to infrastructure from Russian aggression.
The two-day conference in Lugano, which has already heard from President Zelensky, is bringing together several world leaders and NGOs with the aim of drawing up a roadmap for Ukraine’s reconstruction after the war.
Meanwhile President Zelensky says with an increasing supply of Western weapons, Ukraine will reclaim lost territories, including Lysychansk and other cities in Donbas.
“We will return thanks to our tactics, thanks to the increase in the supply of modern weapons.”
“We are gradually moving forward – in the Kharkiv region, in the Kherson region.
“There will be a day when we will say the same about Donbas.”
