These events made Germany's relations with Ukraine one of the central topics of Germany's international affairs and the subject of heated public debates in Germany. Direct investment and location of production in Ukraine are ambiguous topics for German business. Despite a number of favorable investment factors, such as low production and labor costs, as well as the strengthening of the integration of the Ukrainian economy into the EU internal market, bureaucracy, legal uncertainty, corruption, crime and the emigration of qualified workers are hindering the activities of foreign investors in Ukraine, in particular German ones. Moreover, the effect of the unclear situation with the national security of Ukraine as a geopolitical "gray zone" country, which deters investment, is often underestimated. Thus, the article will highlight the current state of affairs regarding German prospects and the role of Ukraine in them. popup.nrat_date 2025-05-12 Close
