The French-Ukrainian investment forum scheduled to take place on November 18 has been postponed until 2016 due to the recent terrorist attacks in Paris, the Foreign Ministries of Ukraine and France said in a joint statement which has been posted on the official website of the Foreign Ministry of Ukraine.

"On Wednesday, November 18, the French-Ukrainian investment forum was to be held in Paris with the participation of French Prime Minister Manuel Valls and Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatseniuk. Due to the tragic events which resulted after terrorist attacks in Paris, Ukraine and France decided to postpone the event," the ministries said.

The forum will now be held in early 2016.

"The new date will be defined in coming weeks," the ministries said.
