In recent years, the global international environment has been growing ever more risky. The coronavirus crisis, Russian aggression, Hamas attack, waves of migration, price shocks in the energy and agricultural markets, trade, fiscal and debt imbalances, inconsistencies between the statements and actions of the key international actors create complex chains of critical political and economic interdependence of countries, which increasingly hinders planning joint efforts and actions aimed at sustainable socio-economic development of countries of the world.
Undeniably, for soonest economic recovery, Ukraine, like any other country, desperately needs investments. In the previous decades, the country failed to become attractive for investment, on the contrary, there was a flight of the national capital (including human capital), which accelerated with the Russian aggression. Therefore, when it comes to the post-war recovery of Ukraine, one should admit that without international investments, the task of building a new civilized country will be postponed indefinitely.
By and large, it should be noted that today foreign investments are not only a factor of economic development — they increasingly acquire a security dimension. The arrival of international investors provides the best protection of the country against aggressive encroachments — the higher the volume of foreign investment is, primarily from developed democratic countries, the more secure the country can feel against the unwanted imperial aggressor. That is why the attitude to foreign investments is increasingly becoming subject to adjustment.
