Sergii Marchenko and Alexander Kava met with GLOBSEC Senior Vice President to discuss prospects for Ukraine's economic recovery

Minister of Finance Sergii Marchenko and Deputy Minister Aleksander Kava met with Senior Vice President of the GLOBSEC John Barter and the team of the think tank.

The meeting focused on Ukraine's key macroeconomic indicators for the current year and 2025, attracting international assistance and cooperation to further support Ukraine through GLOBSEC's activities.

“Cooperation with leading think tanks, including GLOBSEC, helps to develop solutions that not only respond to today's challenges, but also lay the foundation for Ukraine's economic recovery,” said Sergii Marchenko. 

This year, on 4-6 October, Alexander Kava participated in the annual Tatra Summit in Slovakia, where one of the important issues was economic stability and recovery. The Summit brings together representatives from over 60 countries to discuss current challenges, including support and coordination of international partners' efforts.

“Ukraine's participation in the annual Tatra Summit organised by GLOBSEC is an additional opportunity to discuss urgent issues of economic support and better coordinate our efforts with international partners. Such meetings help to strengthen economic ties and contribute to the recovery of our economy,” said Aleksandr Kava.

John Barter noted that GLOBSEC plans to focus Tatra Summit 2025 on highlighting and discussing Ukraine's pressing economic and financial issues to further draw the international community's attention to the needs and prospects of our country.
