During a significant conference in Tokyo on February 19, Japan committed to aiding Ukraine's reconstruction in the wake of its ongoing conflict with Russia. The conference, attended by Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal and some 300 government and business leaders, resulted in Japan pledging a new bilateral tax treaty, support for Japanese businesses, and a $105 million pledge aimed at generating electricity and rebuilding critical infrastructure in Ukraine. Additionally, Japan announced a $7 million contribution to the International Finance Corporation's efforts to support Ukraine and plans to allocate €1.25 billion to support its investors in Ukraine. The two nations signed 56 documents covering various sectors, including agriculture, education, technology, and economic stability, showcasing Japan's long-term commitment to Ukraine's recovery. This meeting, held ahead of the two-year anniversary of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, underscores Japan's significant role in Ukraine's post-war reconstruction and economic growth. Japan also announced the relaxation of restrictions on citizens' trips to Ukraine for reconstruction-related purposes.
