Strategy for the Participation of Manufacturing Enterprises in Ukraine’s Reconstruction Programs: Supply Mechanisms, Technical Regulation, and Integration into the Reconstruction Ecosystem

Macroeconomic Context and Analysis of Construction Materials Market Needs

The reconstruction of Ukraine after massive destruction is one of the greatest infrastructural and economic challenges in modern world history, requiring an unprecedented mobilization of industrial potential. According to comprehensive analytical assessments conducted by experts from the Kyiv School of Economics (KSE) together with the European Business Association, and based on baseline data from the World Bank, the total cost of infrastructure recovery is estimated at over 400 billion US dollars, and this figure does not even take into account the needs of the temporarily occupied territories and the Crimean peninsula. In the structure of these colossal expenses, physical resources occupy a fundamental share: according to preliminary forecasts, exclusively for the purchase of construction materials to rebuild destroyed cities, about 65 billion US dollars will be needed. This financial volume forms a gigantic domestic market that creates unique opportunities for national manufacturers. KSE research convincingly proves that up to 90% of all construction materials required for recovery can be produced directly in Ukraine, provided that adequate investments are attracted for the modernization and expansion of production capacities.

Maximizing the share of national production in this process is not merely a matter of corporate benefit for individual plants, but a critical condition for ensuring the state’s macroeconomic stability. Satisfying such demand with internal resources will allow preserving jobs, stimulating related sectors of the economy, and significantly reducing the pressure on the country’s balance of payments, which would inevitably arise in the event of total imports. An analysis of structural changes in the construction industry indicates that the main drivers of demand during the most active phase of recovery will be basic structural materials, among which cement, concrete, metal structures, brick, glass, and various thermal insulation materials occupy dominant positions.

The issue of supplying the market with cement, which is an indispensable basic element for concrete production and monolithic works, is particularly acute. According to forecasts by the “Ukrcement” Association, during the peak years of reconstruction, the nationwide demand for cement will reach 14 million tons per year. Securing such a volume requires not just the intensification of existing production, but large-scale capital investments in the construction of new clinker kilns, which should increase the aggregate production capacity of Ukrainian plants by at least 2.4 million tons. These data indicate that enterprises need to transition from short-term planning to long-term investment strategies right now.

At the same time, price dynamics in the construction materials market demonstrate a steady upward trend, explained by inflationary processes, complicated logistics, and energy challenges. An analysis of market trends shows that the average annual price growth is 8-12%, accompanied by pronounced seasonal spikes — a traditional price decrease of 5-10% in spring and an increase in autumn. Local production is currently capable of covering the basic demand for key materials, with the products of Ukrainian plants being on average 10-20% cheaper than imported analogs, although they remain significantly more vulnerable to the risks of energy deficits. To mitigate these risks, large distributors try to combine local supplies with imports, which, although more expensive, provide higher stability in the availability of specialized materials, such as galvanized corrugated board or imported insulation.

Regional procurements carried out by contracting organizations to construct physical protection for critical infrastructure facilities serve as a reliable indicator of real market needs. For example, monitoring dashboards record intensive purchases of metal structures in the Donetsk region, rebar in the Mykolaiv region, and concrete in the Kirovohrad and Mykolaiv regions. Forecasts for 2026 for developers indicate a further increase in overall demand by 10-15% and an increase in prices by another 8-12%, evidencing a gradual but steady market recovery. Alongside traditional materials, new efficiency trends are forming: in particular, the active implementation of CLT (Cross-Laminated Timber) panels is expected, the use of which can accelerate construction times by 30-40%, a critical parameter for emergency recovery programs.

Technical Regulation, European Integration, and Standardization of Construction Products

The entry of any industrial plant into the public procurement market and its full participation in infrastructure recovery programs are absolutely impossible without strict compliance with new, rigorous technical regulation requirements. These requirements resulted from the deep harmonization of Ukrainian legislation with the regulatory framework of the European Union, which fundamentally changed the rules of the game in the industry. On January 1, 2023, the Law “On Providing Construction Products on the Market” entered into force in Ukraine, which is de facto an implementation of the provisions of Regulation (EU) No 305/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council of March 9, 2011. This step definitively abolished the outdated Council Directive 89/106/EEC and marked a fundamental paradigm shift in quality control: from the post-Soviet system of mandatory certification according to GOSTs, the market transitioned to the European model of declaring essential performance characteristics.

The implementation of EU Regulation 305 in Ukraine has profound strategic implications, generating both undeniable advantages and serious challenges for domestic manufacturers. On the one hand, the new system ensures a significant improvement in the overall quality of construction products, guarantees better protection for end consumers, and promotes the liberalization of the construction materials market. Most importantly, it greatly simplifies and accelerates the entry of Ukrainian plants into European Union markets, as their products are now evaluated according to unified European harmonized standards. On the other hand, the implementation of the regulation intensifies domestic competition with European companies in Ukraine’s reconstruction market, and also creates high risks for enterprises with outdated technological equipment, which may be definitively squeezed out of the market due to their inability to confirm the necessary performance characteristics.

According to Article 5 of the Law of Ukraine “On Providing Construction Products on the Market,” the manufacturer is directly obliged to draw up a declaration of performance of construction products when placing them on the market and to affix the corresponding mark of conformity to technical regulations. This declaration is a key legal document confirming that the product meets the established legal requirements and is safe for integration into construction works.

The product conformity assessment procedure is a complex multi-level system regulated by the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine dated 09.06.2021 No. 596 “On Approval of Systems for Assessment and Verification of Constancy of Performance of Construction Products” (as amended by CMU Resolution No. 1458 dated 23.12.2021). This fundamental document introduces five different systems for assessing the constancy of performance: 1+, 1, 2+, 3, and 4. The choice of a specific system depends on the level of risk associated with the use of a certain construction product and is specified in the regulatory technical specifications or in Annex ZA of national standards harmonized with European ones.

For a modern plant strategically planning to supply materials for reconstruction projects, certification of the Factory Production Control (FPC) system becomes a non-alternative requirement. As analysis shows, certification of the FPC system is a mandatory condition when verifying the constancy of performance of a construction product under the assessment systems 1+, 1, and 2+, which are most common for structural materials. Upon successful completion of all necessary audits and laboratory tests, the manufacturer draws up a declaration of performance.

Currently, this process is fully digitalized in Ukraine, minimizing corruption risks and accelerating document flow. Interaction is carried out through the Unified State Electronic System in the Construction Sector (YEDESSB). In the administrative electronic cabinet of the construction product manufacturer, the company has the opportunity to independently draw up a declaration. The workflow algorithm in YEDESSB involves: authorization using a qualified electronic signature (QES), setting the organization type, creating and populating an electronic card for the construction product, and subsequently creating a card for the declaration of performance itself. If necessary, if certain specific units of measurement or classifications are absent in the system, the manufacturer can create a request to add new characteristics or product groups based on the Common Procurement Vocabulary CPV 021:2015. The risk-oriented approach of market surveillance authorities, in particular the State Inspection of Architecture and Urban Planning (DIAM), involves regular verification of drawn-up declarations and affixed conformity marks against their actual compliance with legal requirements. Therefore, any manipulation of indicators in YEDESSB can lead to swift sanctions and the withdrawal of products from the market.

The Architecture of Transparency: Integration of DREAM, Prozorro, and Procurements by International Financial Organizations

Implementing thousands of infrastructure recovery projects requires an unprecedented level of transparency, accountability, and coordination among the state, municipalities, international donors, and businesses. The high anti-corruption standards demanded by international financial organizations (IFOs) have prompted the deployment of Ukraine’s state digital ecosystem for reconstruction management — DREAM (Digital Restoration EcoSystem for Accountable Management). This platform is not merely a registry, but a comprehensive environment that creates a single digital route for all reconstruction, restoration, and territorial development projects, helping local governments initiate, plan, execute, and meticulously monitor every penny of public investment.

For a construction materials manufacturing plant, the DREAM platform becomes a critical business analytics tool. Since the system accumulates comprehensive information about future and current projects, the enterprise gains the ability to forecast demand for specific building materials across regions, districts, and specific communities. This allows optimizing logistics, contracting raw materials in advance, and planning production line workloads. A significant technological advantage is the deep integration of DREAM with the electronic public procurement system Prozorro. This integration occurs seamlessly via the procurement plan number: the contractor simply adds this number to their project card in the personal cabinet of the DREAM system, after which all transactional and tender data from Prozorro is automatically pulled and becomes visible to all stakeholders.

Another strategic shift that fundamentally alters the reconstruction landscape was the official recognition of the Ukrainian Prozorro system by the World Bank. Following a thorough audit, the World Bank confirmed the system’s full compliance with its strict rules and approved the use of Prozorro for absolutely all projects it finances in Ukraine. For national suppliers of construction materials, this decision is an extremely positive signal. Procurements funded by IFOs, such as the World Bank or the EBRD, always guarantee the highest solvency of the customer, funding stability, and minimization of risks of cash flow gaps or non-payments, which are often inherent to local budgets. Participating in such premium tenders will require manufacturers to provide not only competitive pricing but also perfect compliance with technical regulations (declarations of performance according to YEDESSB) and a flawless corporate reputation.

The Localization Imperative of 2026: New Requirements and Protection for National Manufacturers

Amid colossal expenditures on reconstruction, one of the most powerful tools for stimulating the national economy is the state policy of localization in public procurement. This protectionist mechanism is designed to break the cycle of import dependence and guarantee that billions of hryvnias from the budget and donor funds will work to create value-added within Ukraine, supporting domestic plants and preserving jobs.

Starting in the second half of 2026, the requirements for the minimum degree of localization will significantly tighten, transitioning to a new, stricter phase. According to the Law of Ukraine “On Public Procurement” (specifically the provisions of sub-clause 2 of clause 6-1 of Section X “Final and Transitional Provisions”), updated requirements will take effect on August 24, 2026, according to which the mandatory production localization threshold will increase from the current 25% to 30%. The legislation establishes a clear, inevitable gradation of the phased increase of this strategic indicator for the coming decade:

These imperative requirements become an absolutely mandatory condition for carrying out a procurement — and not merely a recommendation for inclusion in a product list. They apply provided that the cost of a specific good (or group of goods) as part of the overall procurement subject equals or exceeds the threshold of 1 million hryvnias. It is extremely important to emphasize for suppliers of building materials: this rule applies without exceptions even when the localized product is purchased not separately as a commodity item, but as a component of complex construction works or services. This means that a general contractor who won a tender to build a hospital or a bridge with state funds will be legally obligated to buy pipes, metal structures, or pumping equipment exclusively from those manufacturing plants that have officially confirmed the required localization percentage (e.g., 30% in 2026). The requirements apply to all procedures under Articles 13, 14, and 15 of the Law, as well as to procurements under Cabinet of Ministers resolutions, thus covering even specific procurements under martial law conditions. However, Ukraine’s international obligations should be taken into account: the localization requirement does not apply to goods originating from member countries of the WTO Agreement on Government Procurement (GPA).

The formula for calculating the degree of localization is clearly defined and remains mathematically unchanged. The change will primarily concern exactly what expenses can be attributed to the production cost according to the new procedures. The classic formula is as follows:

L = (1 – (CV + IC) / PC) × 100%

where the key variables are:

1. L — degree of production localization;
2. CV — customs value of raw materials, materials, units, assemblies, parts, and components imported into the customs territory of Ukraine;
3. IC — value of imported components, which the manufacturer purchased from domestic suppliers already within the customs territory of Ukraine (calculated excluding value-added tax);
4. PC — total production cost of the finished product.

The contracting authority has the right to purchase the product only if the manufacturing enterprise has independently included it in the open List of Goods with a Confirmed Degree of Production Localization. The legislator strictly limited intermediaries: delegating this process to third parties (for example, official distributors or dealers) is prohibited, and all responsibility rests directly with the manufacturer.

To combat fraud, an unprecedented innovation has been introduced — the creation of the Register of Unscrupulous Manufacturers. Enterprises that have falsified economic calculations, concealed the origin of raw materials, or provided false information and fictitious documents to artificially inflate the localization degree of their goods will be added to this blacklist. Contracting authorities are expressly and categorically forbidden to purchase any goods from manufacturers included in this register, and before announcing each procurement, the contracting authority is obliged to check the status of a potential supplier.

Strict control over compliance with these requirements is entrusted to the state financial control body — the State Audit Service of Ukraine (SASU). Manufacturers are obliged to provide full sets of documents upon SASU’s first request: cost calculations, customs declarations, and documents confirming technological operations in Ukraine. In case of failure to provide documents within the specified time, the product is automatically excluded from the list of localized items by a decision of the Authorized Body, and disputed issues are reviewed by a specially created Commission on Localized Goods, which has the authority to verify lists and consider complaints. The legislation provides for some macroeconomic flexibility: The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine, in coordination with the relevant parliamentary committee, can annually (by October 31) adjust the degree of localization for the following year — decrease it by up to 5% or increase it by up to 10% for specific goods, or locally lower the threshold for the urgent procurement of a specific product if analogues with the required localization level are physically absent from the Ukrainian market.

Operational Algorithm for Adding Products to the Prozorro Registry of Localized Goods

To exercise their right to supply localized products for reconstruction projects, the manufacturing plant must go through a strictly regulated electronic qualification procedure. This procedure is carried out through authorized electronic platforms of the Prozorro system (such as Zakupivli.Pro, DZO, e-Tender, etc.) and requires meticulous preparation of legal and accounting data. An analysis of current instructions allows us to outline a sequential, multi-stage action algorithm.

Stage 1: Authorization and Basic Manufacturer Qualification The process begins in the virtual personal cabinet of the supplier on the chosen platform. The user must navigate to a specific menu section, which may be called “Services and Analytics,” “Register of Goods with Localization,” or simply “Localization” / “Localized Goods”. Next, the manufacturer clicks the “Submit an application for qualification” (or “Manufacturer Qualification”) button. At this stage, the electronic form is automatically populated with the basic organizational data already existing in the company profile. The manufacturer must mandatorily indicate their primary business activity code (KVED), and, if necessary, update or change the details of the main contact person with whom the Centralized Procurement Organization (CPO) can communicate if questions arise. If needed, foundation documents are also attached at this stage. The stage concludes with the mandatory application of the Qualified Electronic Signature (QES/AES) of an authorized person. The system supports various types of signature carriers (file key, secure token, cloud storage, or Diia.Signature service). After successful key reading, the status automatically changes to “Active Qualification,” which opens access to work with product items.

Stage 2: Creating a Product Card and Identifying Characteristics Having passed qualification, the manufacturer proceeds to the “Product List” (or “Categories”) section and clicks “Add Product”. The identification process in Prozorro Market is extremely strict. The manufacturer selects the appropriate category for their product from a list, after which the system automatically assigns it a code according to the national classifier CPV 021:2015. It is critically important to correctly fill out the “Generalized Product Name” field — it must contain a comprehensive and complete nomenclature name (for example, specifying weight, material, packaging), but without the use of advertising or marketing slogans (for example, it is strictly forbidden to add the word “Promo”). The product image is also subject to rigid moderation: it must contain exclusively the product itself on a perfectly white or transparent background, without any additional information, watermarks, or logos; the file size must not exceed 1 MB, and acceptable formats are strictly jpeg and png. The identification block also requires the mandatory input of the product barcode and a hyperlink to the manufacturer’s official website, serving as a source of information verification for contracting authorities.

Stage 3: Calculating the Degree of Localization At this most critical stage of economic verification, the manufacturer fills out the “Calculation of the Degree of Localization” section. Most fields (cost of imported components, total production cost, etc.) are filled in manually by the enterprise based on its own accounting and customs documentation. However, the system is designed to minimize arithmetic errors: certain summary fields (such as the total cost of raw materials, materials, components) are automatically calculated by algorithms based on the previously entered detailed information. After filling in all the necessary financial indicators, the manufacturer clicks the “Calculate” button, and the system generates the final percentage according to the approved formula. This result is copied to the final “Degree of Product Localization” field. If an application is submitted for this product for the first time, the “Initial entry into the list” option should be selected in the “Application submitted for” field.

Stage 4: Documentary Confirmation and Publication in the Registry After completing the electronic fields, the manufacturer is obliged to upload scanned copies of supporting documents. According to the requirements, the number of uploaded documents must be at least five files. Having checked all the necessary declaration marks, the user saves the entered information. The system warns that after the final addition of the product, editing the information will be impossible. At this stage, the application transitions to the “Draft” status, and the portal automatically generates two key PDF files: “Application for inclusion in the list of goods with a confirmed degree of localization” and “Product Cost Calculation”. To complete the process, the manufacturer clicks the “Sign and Publish” button and applies the QES again. An important nuance: documents must be signed exclusively with the key that indicates the organization’s EDRPOU code or the sole proprietor’s TIN, otherwise the system will reject the action. After successful signing, the product is published in the registry, its status changes to “Active,” and it is displayed in the “My Products” section. In the future, when participating in a specific procurement, the supplier simply selects their approved product from the list, confirms its technical characteristics and country of origin, and adds the generated documents to their tender proposal.

The “eRecovery” (eVidnovlennia) Program: Expanding the Sales Market via State Compensation for Citizens

Besides participating in large-scale B2B projects via the Prozorro system, a plant’s comprehensive strategy for participating in the country’s reconstruction must necessarily include capturing market share in the B2C (retail sales) segment. The main instrument in this market is the state program “eRecovery” (eVidnovlennia), which provides direct targeted financial compensation to hundreds of thousands of citizens for the repair or rebuilding of housing damaged by hostilities. The mechanics of this program dictate that the funds credited to citizens’ special bank cards are strictly limited in their use: they cannot be withdrawn in cash, transferred to another account, or spent on groceries. Ukrainians have the right to purchase exclusively construction goods or pay for repair services with these funds, and this can only be done with companies (legal entities or individual entrepreneurs) that have officially become program participants and integrated their payment terminals with the system.

Currently, the program demonstrates extremely high expansion dynamics: over 1,106 companies (including 178 legal entities and 928 individual entrepreneurs) have already joined, indicating a high level of business trust in this demand stimulation tool. For a construction materials manufacturing plant, developing its own retail sales network, or purposefully working with dealers registered in the “eRecovery” system, opens direct access to billions in state subventions that effectively settle at the consumer level.

A key technical condition for a business to join the program is strict compliance of the company’s activities with specific banking MCC codes (Merchant Category Codes). An MCC code is a four-digit number by which international payment systems (Visa, Mastercard) identify a merchant’s line of business during a transaction via a POS terminal. Initially, the government launched the program in a pilot mode, allowing participation only for businesses in three basic categories:

1. 1520 — General Contractors-Residential and Commercial;
2. 5211 — Lumber and Building Materials Stores;
3. 5231 — Glass, Paint, and Wallpaper Stores.

Realizing the need to expand the assortment of goods and services for comprehensive repairs, the government significantly expanded the list of permitted MCC codes, including specialized contracting services and specific construction goods. Now, companies whose terminals are configured for the following codes can join the program:

1. 1711 — Heating, Plumbing, Air Conditioning Contractors;
2. 1731 — Electrical Contractors;
3. 1740 — Masonry, Stonework, Tile Setting, Plastering, and Insulation Contractors;
4. 1750 — Carpentry Contractors;
5. 1761 — Roofing and Siding, Sheet Metal Work Contractors;
6. 1771 — Concrete Work Contractors;
7. 5065 — Electrical Parts and Equipment;
8. 5074 — Plumbing and Heating Equipment and Supplies;
9. 5198 — Paints, Varnishes, and Supplies;
10. 5200 — Home Supply Warehouse Stores;
11. 5713 — Floor Covering Stores;
12. 8911 — Architectural, Engineering, and Surveying Services.

The procedure for integrating a business into the “eRecovery” ecosystem is fast, fully digitalized, and eliminates the need for physical visits to government agencies. The action algorithm is as follows:

1. The head of the legal entity or the individual entrepreneur logs into the electronic cabinet on the state portal “Diia” (diia.gov.ua) using a Qualified Electronic Signature (QES) or the BankID system.
2. In the main menu, the user navigates the route: Service Catalog → For Business → Entrepreneurship → “Join eRecovery as a Business”.
3. The system displays available enterprise data from registries, which the executive must carefully review and, if necessary, update in their profile.
4. The most responsible step is interacting with banking data. The entrepreneur selects the acquiring bank that services their payment terminals and manually enters data about their Merchant ID (a unique merchant identification code assigned by the bank, which can be obtained through the bank’s contact center). At the same stage, the system automatically confirms that the MCC code configured in the bank genuinely complies with the approved program conditions.
5. Next, the user selects the type of their point of sale (store, construction depot, online store, etc.) and fills in detailed information about it, including the physical address. It should be noted that the state imposes no restrictions on the number of points of sale a company can connect to the program; however, there is a strict territorial limitation: retail outlets located in zones of active hostilities or in temporarily occupied territories are not permitted to participate for safety and control reasons.
6. After entering all the data, the “Diia” portal generates the final text of the electronic application. The user verifies its accuracy and finally certifies it with their electronic signature as a legal entity or individual entrepreneur.

The processing status of the submitted application can be tracked in real time in the personal cabinet on the portal. As soon as the application is verified by the bank and the state, the point of sale will begin accepting payments from special cards. For a large manufacturing plant, this implies the need for proactive communication with its dealer network: the company must incentivize partners to register for this program and provide them with informational support regarding the correct setup of MCC codes, which will ultimately direct a powerful flow of guaranteed state payments directly towards purchasing domestically produced products, bypassing imported alternatives.

Strategic Conclusions and the Architecture of Corporate Actions

Based on a deep analysis of the institutional and market environment, it can be confidently stated that Ukraine’s construction materials industry is entering a phase of unprecedented systemic transformation. The projected total materials demand volume reaching 65 billion US dollars forms a macroeconomic reality where the state, relying on the support of international donors, acts simultaneously as a monopolistic mega-client and an extremely strict regulator. For any industrial enterprise, full participation in recovery programs can no longer be limited to simply selling products from a warehouse; it requires a comprehensive transition to a new operational model and deep integration into the national digital ecosystem.

First, proactive supply chain management and strict control over the cost structure are becoming a critical vector of corporate strategy. Considering that from August 24, 2026, the mandatory localization threshold for all public procurements over 1 million UAH increases to 30%, and will reach 40% by 2028, plants must immediately conduct a thorough audit of their resource base. The systemic reduction of the share of imported raw materials (CV) and the cost of imported components purchased in Ukraine (IC) within the overall production cost structure (PC) is no longer merely a classic margin optimization tool, but the only legitimate key to the public finance market. Negligence in calculations or attempting to artificially manipulate data threatens irreversible consequences: exclusion from the registry and public inclusion in the Register of Unscrupulous Manufacturers, which, thanks to SASU monitoring, will guaranteed cut the enterprise off from government tenders for years.

Second, the inevitable implementation of European technical regulation systems, notably EU Regulation No. 305/2011, requires a massive revision of all internal quality management policies. The era of paper certificates and outdated DSTU standards is giving way to digital declarations of performance, which are generated and stored exclusively in the Unified State Electronic System in the Construction Sector (YEDESSB). Given this, it is critically necessary for manufacturing companies to invest financial and human resources in the development and official certification of a Factory Production Control (FPC) system, which is an absolute prerequisite for successfully passing constancy of performance verification under systems 1+ or 2+ by notified bodies. Having such certificates not only legitimizes structural products on the domestic market but also opens an unimpeded path to financing from international financial organizations (World Bank, EBRD), which now actively and legitimately use the Prozorro platform to conduct their procurements. The parallel integration of Prozorro with the DREAM analytical system creates a powerful macroeconomic forecasting tool for plant analysts: by analyzing digital project maps, it is possible to accurately plan cement production, increase rebar inventories, or expand metal structure manufacturing lines for the specific needs of the most affected regions.

Third, risk diversification requires large businesses to abandon focusing exclusively on B2B contracts and actively enter the retail segment through participation in B2C programs. The rapid connection of their own retail outlets to the “eRecovery” initiative via the state portal “Diia” and the meticulous synchronization of bank POS terminals with the expanded list of permitted MCC codes (such as 5211 for building materials, 5231 for paints, or 1520 for contracting works) is a mandatory strategic step. This will allow accumulating a portion of the huge flow of state cash compensations allocated to citizens, turning them into stable revenue for the manufacturer and its dealer network.

In conclusion, it can be stated: the future success of any domestic plant in Ukraine’s hyper-competitive reconstruction market will directly depend on its ability to perfectly synchronize three key components. The first is the aggressive expansion of modern production capacities in the most deficient niches (cement kilns, metal structure production). The second is flawless legal and engineering compliance regarding the progressive requirements for production localization and European certification. The third is absolute digital flexibility, implying free and efficient operational activity across all state platforms (Prozorro, DREAM, YEDESSB, Diia). Given the relentless trend toward rising raw material costs and increasing construction demand in the coming years, it is precisely those enterprises that begin this comprehensive adaptation today that will assuredly form the industrial foundation of a new, restored Ukraine.
