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. The event by Centre for Economic Strategy aims to explore how Ukraine, in its relations with Poland, Romania, Slovakia and the Czech Republic, can mutually benefit from deepening economic cooperation in the context of the current war, future recovery and Ukraine’s accession to the EU.
