On December 19, 2016, in Brussels (the Kingdom of Belgium), the Government of Ukraine and the European Commission signed 4 Agreements on financing joint operational programs of cross border cooperation for 2014-2020 under the European Neighborhood Instrument. Namely: “Ukraine-Poland-Belarus 2014-2020”, “Ukraine-Hungary-Slovakia-Romania 2014-2020”, “Ukraine-Romania 2014-2020” and “Black Sea Basin 2014-2020”.
The core strategic objectives of the Programs implemented in Ukraine are promotion of economic and social development of the cross border regions, addressing common environmental, health and security issues, and improving the conditions for travel of people, transport of goods and capital. Implementation of these programs will promote mutually beneficial cooperation between the border regions of Ukraine and partner countries through the implementation of joint projects, exchange of experience and best practices, and attraction of additional resources for the balanced development and competitiveness of these regions.
