KYIV (Reuters) -Ukrainian officials working on a joint investment fund with the U.S. are preparing for a visit by their American counterparts in September, Kyiv's economy minister said on Monday.
Ukraine and the U.S. established the fund this year as part of a critical minerals deal aimed at shoring up ties and eventually rebuilding swathes of the war-torn country after Russia's invasion.
Oleksiy Sobolev told reporters in Kyiv the first meeting of the fund's board of directors would take place in September and consider "a pipeline of investment projects".
"A large delegation will come from the U.S. in September to travel around Ukraine and look at these projects," he said, adding that investments could take place in the next 12 months.
