Cross border cooperation programs will help Ukrainian regions in the development of infrastructure, economy, social sphere, environment, and healthcare. The Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal emphasized this during the Government session.

"We have five decisions on the agenda that will allow us to join the European Cross Border Cooperation Program largely. These are the NEXT programs with Poland, Slovakia, Romania, and the Danube Region Program. These programs are designed to last until 2027, and their total funding will amount to almost EUR 590 million," the Prime Minister said.

In addition, the Government has amended the Regulation on the Reforms Delivery Office of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine, which will now serve as the technical secretariat of the Multi-Agency Donor Coordination Platform for Ukraine.

"This platform is one of our main platforms for interaction with partners on the issue of financial needs and reconstruction of Ukraine. The platform's secretariat will work in Brussels and Kyiv. The involvement of our Reforms Delivery Office will allow us to approach the Platform's priorities in a more systematic way," said Denys Shmyhal.
