OREANDA-NEWS. June 16, 2015. "We do everything for the Russian troops to get out of Ukraine’s territory, while on the other Ukrainian territory, controlled by Ukraine, which is over 90%, we should restore order and encourage investors, create workplaces, gradually fill the budget and raise social standards for Ukrainians", urged Arseniy Yatsenyuk.
Aimed at attract investors, the Government organizes on 13 July the first investment conference in the United States.

Moreover, participating in the investment conference will be Chairman of the State Property Fund of Ukraine to present the privatization plan: "Once again insist on a transparent privatization of certain objects to be held - open, competitive, when, on the one hand, we will attract funding of foreign investors and on the other - will provide an opportunity for the international investors to convince that the rules have changed within the country, that privatization tenders are organized not to satisfy Ukrainian oligarchs, but to satisfy real foreign companies that are willing to invest money, promote the development of the Ukrainian economy and create new jobs."

Those complex reforms, including the tariff forming, those we pursue today in the country have a single task – to ensure the country being a completely energy independent state, having its own gas and oil, consuming less energy resources, having introduced energy efficiency and, thus, reducing the bills for Ukraine’s population for housing and communal services and increasing its own production and energy independence of the country".
