Description

Following the Russian military aggression on Ukraine, and in line with the decision of the European Commission to suspend cooperation with Russia and Belarus, a meeting was held in Brussels to explore ways to continue the implementation of concerned ENI CBC programmes.

As a result, it was understood that the EU beneficiaries can carry on the project operations, whereas the activities and financial flows on the Russian and Belarusian side have to be suspended
