< p>This week, Germany will host a key conference aimed at rallying support for Ukraine. “Ukraine is in the process of rebuilding its basic infrastructure – homes, water systems, hospitals and power grids – "although the conflict continues," said German Development Minister Svenja Schulze, reports News.bg.
She stressed the importance of providing the essentials - electricity, water and shelter - to ensure that life continues in Ukraine. Schulze highlighted the enormity of the task at hand, saying it was a challenge too big for governments to tackle alone.
The conference aims to bring together not only government organizations, but also business, civil society and local communities to contribute to Ukraine's recovery efforts.
The Berlin conference, which follows a similar event in London last year, is to precede the G7 summit in Italy and a global peace meeting in Switzerland scheduled for June 15 and 16. Meetings that are crucial for Ukraine as it continues to gain support from its Western allies.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is expected to join the conference in Berlin. The event promises to be a significant gathering, with around 2,000 delegates from the fields of politics and business expected to attend. Zelensky also hinted at upcoming agreements with European partners, especially Germany, aimed at strengthening support for Ukraine.
