The Prime Minister Nicolae Ciuca, the President of the Chamber of Deputies, Marcel Ciolacu, and the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Bogdan Aurescu, met on Tuesday, in Kyiv, with the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
"The most important part of the discussions was related to the economic and humanitarian steps that Romania can take in respect to Ukraine. At the moment, the Ukrainian economy is very affected. The export of grains, of agri-food products meant an important contribution to Ukraine's GDP," Ciuca said.
According to the head of Executive, "the main concern is the economic one, beyond the efforts of the Ukrainian people, to be able to cope with the invasion of the Russian army."
