Ukraine, Romania and Moldova have chosen an official name for their joint cooperation format. It has been named the "Odesa Triangle", according to a statement by Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha.
Sybiha recalled that several meetings between Ukraine, Romania, and Moldova have already taken place at the level of leaders and foreign ministers. The August 8 meeting in Chernivtsi was also attended remotely by the foreign ministers of Poland (Radosław Sikorski) and Lithuania (Kęstutis Budrys).
During the meeting, the parties, among other issues, discussed increasing the institutionalization of the Ukraine–Moldova–Romania format. The format was named the "Odesa Triangle" after the city where it was created in 2022.
The statement said that it was agreed to appoint regional coordinators who would determine the regularity of meetings, develop their agenda, and define clear joint tasks and projects.
At the beginning of August, Ukraine, Moldova, and Romania agreed to create a regional cyber alliance. It will help the countries counter cyber threats generated by the Russian regime.
Recently, Romanian Foreign Minister Oana-Silvia Țoiu visited Kyiv. She held a number of meetings and, among other things, visited the Okhmatdyt children's hospital, which was attacked by Russia more than a year ago.
