\naimed at supporting farmers in Central and Eastern Europe, agriculture minister
\nPetre Daea said on Friday. He added that Romania and Ukraine will consult
\nweekly regarding the expected volumes of grain, in an attempt to limit imports.

\nMykola Solskyi, Petre Daea said Romania stands in solidarity with farmers from
\nPoland, Hungary, Bulgaria and Slovakia, but the rules must be made together. The
\nUkrainian minister thanked him for the sincere and constructive

\nhe has felt for the past two years. The situation we are in now requires
\nsome very quick decisions, he also said. The two ministers also discussed

\nmeeting of the Ukraine Defence Contact Group held in Ramstein, Germany.
\nAccording to a statement from the Romanian defence ministry, the meeting
\nreiterated, both on a practical and a conceptual level, the unity of over 50
\ndemocratic states and international organisations in their support of Ukraine,
\na nation determined to protect its internationally recognised borders in the
\nface of a brutal and unprovoked invasion. T\u00eelv\u0103r conveyed Romania’s support for
\nUkraine’s right to self-defence and highlighted the need for the international
\nsupport for Ukraine to continue as long as necessary. It is now very clear
\nthat the president Putin’s plan to divide us has failed, the Romanian official
\nis quoted as saying. He also advocated the need to support states in the Black
\nSea region like the Republic of Moldova and Georgia who are exposed to hybrid
\nthreats, cyber attacks and propaganda and disinformation attempts by Russia. <\/p>\n
