Ukraine and the United States have agreed to create a joint Reconstruction Investment Fund aimed at attracting global capital and boosting both economic and security cooperation, Ukrainian officials said on Wednesday.
First Deputy Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko announced the agreement on X, calling it a major step toward “equal cooperation and investment” between the two countries.
The fund is designed to mobilise international investors to help rebuild Ukraine’s war-torn economy, while also opening the door for additional U.S. contributions, including potential defence support such as air defence systems.
“This is about more than money—it’s about resilience,” Svyrydenko wrote.
The initiative reflects Kyiv’s broader push to tie post-war recovery to long-term strategic partnerships, especially with Western allies.
