A trilateral meeting of representatives of Ukraine, Romania and the European Commission was held in the city of Galati within the framework of the “Paths of Solidarity” initiative.

During the meeting, representatives of the countries discussed the improvement of the PRIMUS platform for data exchange, the development of shipping safety and logistics, as well as the preparation of a Memorandum of Understanding.
