The Ministry of Culture of Ukraine has announced the inclusion of the transnational “Precucuteni-Ariusud-Cucuteni-Trypillia” Cultural Complex on UNESCO’s Tentative List.
“It comprises 15 archaeological sites located across eight regions of Ukraine, as well as 36 in Romania and 20 in the Republic of Moldova. The next step is the preparation of a complete nomination dossier for submission to UNESCO with the aim of including these sites on the World Heritage List,” the ministry’s statement reads.
It is noted that the included Ukrainian sites represent archaeological monuments that reflect the high level of development of settlements, planning, and material culture of the Eneolithic era on the territory of modern Ukraine.
As reported, on September 18, 2025, the ministries of culture of Ukraine, Romania, and Moldova signed a memorandum of understanding on cooperation in the preparation and promotion of a joint nomination dossier. The document formalized the three countries’ intention to jointly prepare and submit the transnational serial site “Precucuten-Ariusud-Cucuteni-Trypillia Cultural Complex” to the UNESCO World Heritage List.

The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) has issued a loan of EUR 2.6 million to Negabarit-Service LLC (Volyn region), one of the leaders of the domestic market for oversized and complex cargo carriage by road, to finance an investment program providing the procurement of up to 42 GPS-equipped tractor trucks and 18 trailers. According to a correspondent of Interfax-Ukraine, the loan agreement was signed in Kyiv on December 20.
The loan will be accompanied by a grant of up to EUR 100,000 under the EU4Business program and a stimulating grant of $452,000 under the EBRD’s FINTECC program launched by the bank in Ukraine in February 2016 to support the introduction of new technologies for climate change mitigation and adaptation to them.
It is assumed that the new trucks will reduce the operating costs of Negabarit-Service by at least 30% due to the reduction of fuel consumption and the cost of maintenance. They will meet environmental standards of at least Euro-6, which will help reduce emissions of nitrogen oxide by 80% and carbon oxide by 22%.
