According to the Japanese government, its reconstruction program in Ukraine includes rebuilding infrastructure, demining, expanding agriculture , improving the humanitarian situation, developing biotechnology, industry and information technology, and strengthening governance.

The Japanese Prime Minister added that the two countries will sign an agreement to eliminate double taxation and begin negotiations to revise the investment agreement to facilitate the participation of Japanese companies in reconstruction projects in Ukraine.

The conference, attended by around 300 government and business officials from Japan and Ukraine, was held amid growing concerns that support for Kyiv from Western countries may be waning.
