Freedom is not free. After 2 years of Russia's brutal full-scale invasion, lionhearted Ukrainians continue to fight for freedom, sovereignty, and independence. 84% of AmCham members have employees who are serving in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. 29% have had instances of employees killed; 30% of companies have had their plants and facilities damaged.
Despite the hardship, suffering, and losses, and inspired by the brave defenders, the business community continues to operate and believe in Ukraine, keeping the economy running, taxes paid, and Ukrainians employed. Ukraine remains open for business. According to AmCham's latest survey, 86% of AmCham members are fully operational. The safety and security of staff is the highest priority and the biggest challenge for the next six months. Together with the Ukrainian Government, AmCham is pushing the pro-growth agenda forward, shaping recovery-wise policies and finding possible tools and ways to support the economy while air raid sirens blare.
But Ukraine's lionhearted defenders desperately need tools to win this war. Give us the tools, and we will finish the job – a bold signal AmCham Ukraine is sending today to the United States and international partners on the continuation of military and financial support.
AmCham Ukraine is grateful to the US Government and international partners for all the support they provide to Ukraine and Ukrainians during Russia's l full-scale war, for building coalitions, and for standing for what is right. Now is the time to support Ukraine as global security is at stake.
Glory to Ukraine! Glory to Heroes!
