The UAE and Ukraine have discussed investment opportunities in the European country, with a particular
emphasis on infrastructure projects, under the Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA)

between the two nations.

Minister of State for Foreign Trade, Dr. Thani bin Ahmed Al Zeyoudi, hosted a business roundtable that brought
together UAE government officials, leading UAE businesses, and investment groups with a high-ranking Ukrainian
delegation led by the First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Economy, Yuliia Svyrydenko.

The UAE-Ukraine CEPA, signed in the presence of President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan
and President Volodymyr Zelenskyy of Ukraine, aims to strengthen bilateral trade relations and investment flows

between the two nations and is expected to add approximately $369 million (AED 1.35 trillion) to the UAE's GDP and
$874 million (AED 3.2 trillion) to Ukraine's GDP by 2031.

The CEPA will also help to accelerate Ukraine's economic recovery, creating new opportunities for collaboration
across sectors such as infrastructure, heavy industry, aviation, and information technology.
