Hyundai will help restore Boryspil Airport after war ends

The South Korean company Hyundai Engineering & Construction will help to restore the Boryspil International Airport after the Russian-Ukrainian war ends.

“Hyundai E&C will cooperate with Ukraine to restore not only the country’s transportation infrastructure including airports and railways but also its energy infrastructure,” Hyundai E&C CEO Yoon Young-Joon said, The Korea Herald reports.

Under the agreement, Hyundai E&C will rebuild landing strips and a new cargo terminal at Boryspil International Airport.

The company is currently conducting a feasibility study on the cargo terminal.

Hyundai E&C said it will use its technology and experience accumulated through participating in construction projects at Incheon International Airport, Singapore Changi Airport and Chinchero International Airport in Peru.

All construction will begin after the war with Russia ends, the company added.

In April, Hyundai E&C and its US partner Holtec International signed a cooperation agreement with Energoatom, Ukraine’s state-owned nuclear utility, to build small module reactors in Ukraine.

As reported, South Korea will offer $52 billion in comprehensive support for both public and private sectors for Ukraine reconstruction projects.
