KIEV, Dec. 9 – The number of projects with the participation of foreign investors and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development could decrease in Ukraine in 2012 due to the fall of interest in the country, EBRD Country Chief for Ukraine Andre Kuusvek told Interfax-Ukraine.

"We have proved that we can invest EUR 1 billion in Ukraine annually, but this depends not only on us: we have projects in the private segment, which need real investors, either Ukrainian companies or new foreign investors," he said.
