I hope that Stara Zagora will show interest in participating in the large Ukrainian-Bulgarian business forum, which will be held on April 25 in Sofia both in person and online. The invitation was extended to the Municipality of Stara Zagora by the deputy ambassador of Ukraine to our country, Anna Tertychna. She spoke with the deputy mayor in charge of “Municipal property, health care and social activities” Pavlina Delcheva, as well as with the director of the Directorate “European Programs and Protocol” Georgi Simeonov.
“Speaking of the Ukrainian-Bulgarian bilateral cooperation, I want to note that last year was extremely successful, we had more than dozens of contacts at the highest level. As a continuation of these visits and arrangements, the large Ukrainian-Bulgarian business forum is being held in Sofia on April 25. I assume that the Bulgarian Chamber of Commerce and Industry will also invite the regional one in Stara Zagora, there will be a large presence of Ukrainian business, more than 30 delegates, as well as the possibility of online inclusion in the work of this forum,” explained the deputy ambassador.
According to her, the forum is really of great interest to both countries, since in the last 4 years, cargo exchange has grown threefold and there is room for further growth.
A forum of cities and regions in Ukraine will also be held this year, and we also hope that Stara Zagora will show interest in participating in this forum as well, given the opportunities that are opening up with projects for the renewal of Ukraine, Ms. Tertic. She recalled the enormous support to Ukraine from both the European Union and the United States. “Many projects have already started, the resumption of the work of a huge number of enterprises of strategic national importance, especially in the field of energy, is planned,” announced the deputy ambassador. She emphasized this industry, as her hosts from Stara Zagora explained how important it is for our city and the region.
At the business forum on April 25 in Sofia, projects in various fields – agriculture, processing industry and related to infrastructure – will be discussed.
