"Our countries are neighbors, and therefore the border cooperation in the agrarian field is very important. Both Hungary and Ukraine have well-developed agrarian sectors, so there are many interesting areas to create joint projects and niches to increase the volume of bilateral trade," she said.

During the meetings held within the framework of the forum, the parties discussed the possibilities of expanding the bilateral cooperation in the border regions, including through the program of the Hungarian government for Hungarians living in Zakarpattia region.
