Kyiv's strong presence in Lugano this week displayed its dedication to far-reaching reform and to transforming and rebuilding its war-shattered country, a top Ukrainian official says. The two-day conference was not a pledging conference, but concluded with dozens of countries committing to support Ukraine over what is expected to be a long and expensive recovery. Alexander Rydnyansky, an advisor to President Volodymyr Zelensky, says "we're going to be very serious about rebuilding Ukraine, reforming Ukraine". IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
