European Commission welcomes Memorandum of Understanding on solidarity coridors between Romania and Ukraine

The European Commission welcomes the signing of the Memorandum of Understanding between the Government of Romania and the Government of Ukraine which will further contribute to increasing the capacity of the solidarity corridors, especially considering the damage suffered by the transport infrastructure in Ukraine following the aggression by Russia, reads a European Commission's release.

Romania has an essential role in the functioning of the solidarity corridors and collaborates constructively with all the parties involved, including through the EU-Ukraine Solidarity Corridors Joint Coordination Platform. The Commission encourages this close cooperation between EU Member States and Ukraine.

The Commission continues to support the implementation of the EU-Ukraine solidarity corridors and the Ukrainian action plan on the export of Ukrainian grains, in particular by facilitating cross-border links and transport operations.

The improvement of the border crossing between Ukraine and Romania, foreseen by this memorandum, will not only serve Ukraine's immediate import and export needs, but will anchor it firmly in the EU transport space. Funding is already available from the EU budget, the European Investment Bank (EIB) and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), while the upcoming Ukraine Facility will further contribute to the reconstruction and development of Ukraine's transport infrastructure and its connections with the EU.

Prime Minister Marcel Ciolacu and his Ukrainian counterpart, Denys Shmyhal, signed on Wednesday, at the end of the joint meeting of the executives of the two countries, held in Kyiv, a memorandum on "ensuring the safe transit of Ukrainian products and a strategy on the development of border crossing points Ukraine - Romania and related road infrastructure".

Also, an agreement was signed between the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine and the Government of Romania regarding the construction of the border road bridge over the Tisa River, on the Romanian-Ukrainian border, between the localities of Bila Tserkva and Sighetu Marmatiei.
