The opening of embassies in Kyiv and Damascus is planned in the near future, which will be an important step in the development of bilateral relations and strengthening cooperation between Ukraine and Syria.
The parties paid special attention to the development of logistics, trade and sea routes, which can become the basis for expanding economic cooperation and creating new opportunities for the communities of both countries. Food security was also discussed, in particular the "Grain from Ukraine" initiative, which should support stability in the region.
