Bulgaria, Greece and Romania have finalized a memorandum for joint cooperation on new transport projects, said European Commissioner for Sustainable Transport and Tourism Apostolos Tzitzikostas. He stated that an agreement for the implementation of the joint projects will be signed in November in Brussels.
The three Balkan countries are joining forces to develop new road and rail routes that will connect the Aegean Sea, the Black Sea and the Danube River. Commissioner Tzitzikostas emphasized that this is a transport axis with immense potential for the economic development of the countries.
He noted that Bulgaria, Greece and Romania have achieved an unprecedented level of trilateral dialogue. On Bulgarian territory, the Kulata–Vidin and Svilengrad–Ruse sections, as well as the planned "Black Sea" motroway, are considered of strategic importance, reports BNR’s correspondent in Brussels Katya Peeva.
