Nearly five months of war has damaged crucial infrastructure — factories, airports, railway stations — and obliterated residential buildings, schools, hospitals, churches and shopping malls. And the bombs continue to fall. Ukraine’s prime minister, Denys Shmyhal, told those assembled in Lugano on Monday that the cost of rebuilding was estimated at $750 billion.

President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine had warned the conference that the task of rebuilding the country would be “colossal.” Russia’s indiscriminate shelling was an attempt not just to destroy Ukraine but also the vision of democracy and Europe, he said by video link, making the war “not just ours, not just a local one.”

Oh yeah? Just hire some Japanese experts to guide you through how they rebuilt Hiroshima and Nagasaki.


Or hire the Germans to guide you through how they rebuilt Dresden or Hanburg. Or Poles who rebuild Poland periodically.
