"Estonia intends to involve other countries in the restoration of objects destroyed during the war with the Russian Federation in Zhytomyr region. Denmark agreed to lead the process of long-term recovery of Mykolaiv.

The Italian humanitarian organization Cesvi allocates the first half a million euros for the restoration of the Ukrainian Buchi and plans to collect more thanks to charitable contributions. Great Britain is ready after the end of the war to help rebuild Kyiv and the Kyiv region," Shulyak said.

In addition, the deputy emphasized that the government will not wait for reparations from Russia to rebuild the country, because "this process can drag on for decades."

At the same time, according to her, Russian assets will be confiscated, and the funds received from them will be directed to a special fund. In particular, such a decision has already been agreed with the Irish government, which is ready to transfer funds received from Russian assets for the restoration of Ukraine.
