Japan proposed reconstruction plans to Ukraine

The governments of Japan and Ukraine signed a memorandum of cooperation on restoration of Ukrainian infrastructure affected by the Russian invasion, which is based on the experience of Japanese specialists after the 2011 earthquake and tsunami that caused the Fukushima Daichii nuclear power plant disaster. .

The Ukrainian Infrastructure Minister, Oleksandr Kubrakov, received from the Japanese Reconstruction Minister, Hiromichi Watanabe, recommendations of policies and knowledge for a sustainable reconstruction with the experience of the earthquake in the Asian country.

“War does not last forever, and we must restore and rebuild all the destroyed infrastructure, housing and economy. Knowledge of Japan is extremely important and unique in the world,” Kubrakov said.

For his part, Watanabe indicated that “for reconstruction, it is essential not only to improve infrastructure, but also to bring residents back and rebuild communities,” reports the NHK television network.

The objectives of these cooperation agreements are to increase recognition of the importance of working coherently to strengthen effective and sustainable reconstruction and increase the resilience of society; increase mutual benefit through the exchange of policies and experiences; and expand cooperation between relevant public and private organizations.

To this end, both cabinets agree to share information and experience in the development of reconstruction policies; encourage mutual participation in technical seminars and exhibitions; as well as any other form of cooperation that is decided between both parties, according to a statement.
