Documents signed during Yanukovych's visit to China should bring $8 bln in investments to Ukrainian economy

BEIJING. Dec 5 (Interfax) - The documents signed during Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych's state visit to China may bring about $8 billion in investments in Ukraine, Yanukovych said.

"The documents signed today expand our economic cooperation. We have not yet calculated how much this will make up in terms of money, but we made some calculations earlier and saw that the matter is about some $8 billion in investments coming to the Ukrainian economy," Yanukovych said after signing a number of bilateral documents in Beijing on Thursday.

Other documents that are still being finalized and will be signed in the near future should also significantly increase the volume of Chinese investments in the Ukrainian economy, he said.
