The potential and need for attracting foreign investments remain vast, and economic reforms will turn investors\u2019 eyes on Ukraine.<br><br> However, risks related to the rule of law have undermined foreign investment in Ukraine for decades. Investors cite widespread corruption and lack of trust regarding the judiciary as key obstacles for increased investments in Ukraine. The new government has ambitious plans in reforming the judiciary, bringing an end to impunity of corrupt officials, and relaunching law enforcement agencies.<br><br> In order to conduct a reality check on these ambitious plans, the Berlin Policy Hub has invited three civil society experts from Ukraine to share their assessments:<br><br><strong>Hlib VYSHLINSKY<\/strong>, Executive Director, Centre for Economic Strategy (CES), Kyiv<br><strong>Iryna SHYBA<\/strong>, Executive Director, DEJURE Foundation, Kyiv<br><strong>Oleksandr LIEMIENOV<\/strong>, Founder of StateWatch, Kyiv<br><br> The inputs of our Ukrainian colleagues will be commented from the German side by:<br><br><strong>Florian LAUDI<\/strong>, Special Envoy for Ukraine, Head of the Ukraine Task Force, Federal Foreign Office, Berlin (tbc)<br><strong>Ute KOCHLOWSKI-KADJAIA<\/strong>, Managing Director, German Eastern Business Association (OAOEV), Berlin <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"http:\/\/iep-berlin.de\/registration-update-on-ukraine-assessing-the-new-ukrainian-governments-reforms-on-economic-development-rule-of-law-and-anti-corruption-30-january-2020-berlin\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Registration <\/a>,  <\/li><li><a href=\"http:\/\/iep-berlin.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Agenda_Programm-Public-Event_30.01.2019.pdf\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Programme<\/a>.<\/li><\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Organization: Institut f\u00fcr Europ\u00e4ische Politik We are pleased to invite you to our round-table discussion on the topic \u201cUpdate on Ukraine &#8211; Assessing the New Ukrainian Government\u2019s Reforms on Economic Development, Rule of Law and Anti-Corruption\u201d on Thursday, 30 January.
