On Monday, September 12, France and Romania will sign an agreement on facilitating the export of grain from Ukraine by land. The agreement covers exports by land, sea and river transport.

According to the draft agreement of the Franco-Romanian agreement, Paris will cooperate in the development of a project aimed at improving the efficiency of the port of Galaţi, equipping border points in the north of Romania, maximizing the use of grain containers located at the port of Constanta, as well as increasing the throughput there and in the Sulin Canal.

It would also help to build a medium-term strategy on the corridor between Romania and Ukraine and provide support for the optimization of vessel traffic. France will also provide financing for initial technical expertise and work with Bucharest to identify future funding.
