Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha said in a statement that the trilateral cooperation format launched by Ukraine, Moldova and Romania four years ago is important in terms of security, the economy and regional projects.

Sybiha noted that regional defense cooperation should be strengthened for the security of the Black Sea and Danube region, freedom of navigation should be protected, and energy and transport networks should be made more resilient.

Stating that Ukraine and Moldova are advancing toward European Union membership, Sybiha said they would continue to strengthen the Odesa Triangle and turn shared interests into concrete projects.
