9 September , 2016  

KYIV. Sept 9 (Interfax-Ukraine) – Ukrainian Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman held a meeting with Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban. The two prime ministers discussed prospects of Ukrainian-Hungarian cooperation and some agreement has been reached.

“At the meeting we agree on stirring up cooperation as part of the Ukrainian-Hungarian intergovernmental commission. Our task is to draw up a medium-term action plan for cooperation between Ukraine and Hungary in infrastructure, energy and agriculture,” Groysman wrote on his Facebook page late on Wednesday.

He said that another important topic was the necessity of exchanging information about movement of goods on the Ukrainian-Hungarian border.

“An agreement would help to fight smuggling, grey imports in the customs area,” the Ukrainian prime minister said.

After a meeting with prime ministers of four countries of the Visegrad Group, Groysman wrote that “the main result of this short, but intensive, visit is the enlargement of prospects for our mutually beneficial cooperation.”
