Volodymyr Zelensky, President of Ukraine, was recently revealed to have met with major American business leaders and Wall Street financiers during his visit to the United States to discuss post-war reconstruction projects in Ukraine.

According to major foreign media on the 24th (local time), President Zelensky stated on Telegram that "American businesspeople and financiers confirmed they are ready to make large-scale investments in our country immediately after the war ends and security is guaranteed," adding, "We are working towards Ukraine's victory and reconstruction."

The meeting took place during President Zelensky's visit to the U.S. to attend the United Nations General Assembly in New York. In addition to Michael Bloomberg, founder of Bloomberg News and former mayor of New York City, Larry Fink, chairman of BlackRock, the world's largest asset management firm, and Bill Ackman, hedge fund magnate and chairman of Pershing Square Capital, expressed their intention to invest in Ukraine's reconstruction projects. He also shared photos from the meeting with them.

President Zelensky recently attended the United Nations General Assembly in New York, condemning Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and subsequently visited Washington and Canada to request continued military and financial support for Ukraine.

With Ukraine's post-war reconstruction project, estimated at around 1,400 trillion won, now underway, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz announced plans to hold an international conference for Ukraine's reconstruction in Berlin around June 11 next year during the UN General Assembly period. In June, a Ukraine reconstruction conference co-hosted by the governments of the UK and Ukraine was held in London, with representatives from over 60 countries participating.
