During the International Conference "Integrated transport corridors in Europe – Asia Connection", the Republic of Moldova and Ukraine spoke regarding their collaboration, with the intention to ease the movement of goods for economic agents between the two countries. This year they plan to sign an agreement for free movement of goods between the two countries.

"Republic of Moldova, along with all the other countries that signed the European Union Association Agreement, have taken upon ourselves a responsibility we will see through" Pavel Filip mentioned.

The Prime Minister believes that special attention should be given upon the roads tying Chisinau with Odessa, as well as the rails between Basarabeasca and Berezino. Those projects have to be included in the movement of goods plan between the two countries. The Prime Minister has also accentuated that the „Cuciurgan-Pervomaisc“ customs have proven to be efficient not only when it comes to controlling civilians, but also economic agents.

"I wish to mention that even businessmen have attended our forum, a crucial factor, as the development of transportation means are made for them. Economic development cannot be achieved separately from business" PM of Ukraine, Volodimir Groisman mentioned.

Pavel Filip believes that creating agreements with both Europe and Asia is an important step for the Republic of Moldova, as it will remove the administrative barriers and allow free movement of goods and people between the countries. The future agreements between Moldova and Ukraine includes the repair of Platonovo-Liubaşevka roads, establishing Palanka-Mayaki-Udobnoe customs, but also including Edineț-Vinnița authorities in the Trans-European transport network, TEN-T.
