The message reads, in part:
“Relations between our countries are developing dynamically in the spirit of strategic partnership and alliance. Regional cooperation has traditionally been an important part of our relations and continues to be actively supported at various levels: more than forty interregional agreements are currently in force, creating conditions for the implementation of joint economic, social, and humanitarian initiatives, including the establishment of industrial parks and technology centres, as well as the organisation of exhibitions and presentations.
The Council of Regions provides an excellent platform for direct dialogue with heads of central and local authorities, business leaders, experts, figures from academia, and representatives of universities and public organisations. The agenda of this meeting includes pressing issues of cooperation in industry and agriculture, energy and e-commerce, transport and logistics, culture, and education. During the plenary and sectoral sessions, participants will have the opportunity to share their accumulated experience and outline new, promising forms and methods of joint work.”
