EU countries increasingly view Ukraine as a large neighbouring market, a source of labour and human capital, a partner in manufacturing and logistics, and a future member of the European Union.
At the same time, public and political debates in neighbouring countries are often accompanied by concerns about competition in sensitive sectors.
On 12 March, from 3 to 5 p.m. (CET) on Zoom, we will hold a round table with experts from Central and Eastern European countries.
