(MENAFN- UkrinForm) This was stated by Nicolas Faurissier, Minister Delegate for Foreign Trade and Economic Attractiveness of France, in an interview with Ukrinform.

He noted that Ukraine's economy will offer great opportunities for the EU in the field of industry, energy, including in the nuclear sector, agriculture, defence, cutting-hedge technologies, among others.

“Ukraine, like France, believes in nuclear energy and has a strong know-how on this matter. Nuclear will be crucial for EU energetic autonomy and also its decarbonation. In that perspective, I think the most valuable asset of Ukraine remains its vision of the strategic autonomy that France has been promoting for years. Ukraine is experiencing it in a very concrete manner and this vision will definitely strengthen the EU. France and Ukraine can push forward together this vision for the future of the EU,” the deputy minister said.
