Editor’s note:

The Ukrainian economy has diversified since 2014. The shift from trade relations with our neighbor where we shared the same language, a common border, culture and long-standing business relationships was due to war. The first on Ukrainian soil since 1945. The new circumstances have forced Ukrainian businesses to re-orient themselves to the EU, Middle East, and other markets where there is not just opportunity but the chance to realize financial success for Ukrainian exporters. Whether it be export to the EU, Canada, the USA, China, or the Middle East this is only the beginning.
