Highlighted is a $588 billion rebuilding plan needing $800 billion over a decade, framed within broader discussions on ending the ongoing conflict.

Ukrainian and U.S. officials gathered in Geneva on Thursday to deliberate on vital post-war reconstruction efforts. Despite a persistent impasse in peace talks with Russia, discussions will feature a proposed $800 billion prosperity package aimed at rebuilding Ukraine's shattered economy.

The strategic discussions include U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, who are advancing dialogue on Ukraine's economic restoration. Notably, there is no scheduled media engagement from the Ukrainian delegation following these discussions.
