Japan to host Ukraine investment conference by early 2024, foreign minister says
That would come on top of the more than $7.6 billion in aid it had already given to Ukraine, he added. Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida told Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy about the plan to host the reconstruction conference earlier this month.

Japan will host a conference to encourage companies to invest into Ukraine some time between the end of the year and early 2024, foreign minister Yoshimasa Hayashi said on Wednesday. Private-sector actors will be able to "strongly support the recovery and reconstruction of Ukraine," Hayashi told the Ukraine Recovery Conference in London.
Japan was planning to support Ukraine mainly through projects focused on mine clearance, basic infrastructure such as electricity, agriculture and strengthening democracy, Hayashi said. That would come on top of the more than $7.6 billion in aid it had already given to Ukraine, he added.
