On June 11 and 12, Minister of Economics Viktors Valainis will visit Berlin, Germany, to participate in the annual high-level conference dedicated to Ukraine's reconstruction. During his visit, he will also meet with Manuela Schwesig, the Prime Minister of the federal state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, and representatives of German companies.

The goal of the "Ukraine's Reconstruction 2024" conference is to mobilize international non-military financial and political support for Ukraine, focusing on the country's recovery, internal reforms, modernization, and integration into the European Union (EU). The conference will be attended by representatives of many Western governments and regions, leaders of non-governmental organizations, financial institutions, and companies, as well as a large Ukrainian delegation. The conference will be opened by the President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, and a senior leader from Ukraine.

It is planned that the Latvian Minister of Economics will deliver a speech at the conference – Latvia's national statement on support for Ukraine's reconstruction. He will also participate in a discussion panel titled “Utilizing International Municipal Partnerships in the Recovery and EU Accession Process.” Additionally, Minister Valainis will discuss bilateral political and economic cooperation between Latvia and the state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern with Prime Minister Schwesig.
