Launching event - The Romania–Moldova–Ukraine triangle. A framework for enhanced regional connectivity

As we head into the fourth year of the Russia–Ukraine war, human, technical and financial attrition is exacting a heavy toll on Ukraine and its allies. The new Trump administration in the White House is pushing for an end to the fighting. While the details of how to achieve this are highly disputed, one thing is certain: irrespective of any short-term solution putting an end to the hot war in Ukraine, the question of how to rebuild Ukraine afterwards is critical for the stability and resilience of the whole region.

As part of a recently forged regional triangle with Ukraine and Moldova, Romania has a unique position which enables us to act not only for the benefit of the three countries themselves, but ultimately for the greater stability and prosperity of this part of Europe. Romanian decision-makers might be tempted to take a wait-and-see approach, but waiting for the ‘fog of war’ to clear up will cost Romania important time as it seeks to position itself as a regional hub for Ukraine’s reconstruction.
