Zelensky, Sandu discuss prospects of uniting energy systems with Europe

President Volodymyr Zelensky and Prime Minister of Moldova Maia Sandu have discussed prospects for combining the energy systems of the two states with the energy system of continental Europe.

The Ukrainian president stated this at a joint press conference with the Moldovan prime minister, an Ukrinform correspondent reported.

"Separately, we discussed the prospects for uniting the energy systems of Ukraine and Moldova with the energy system of continental Europe," said the president.

Also, Zelensky assured the Moldovan side of the reliability of Ukraine as an electricity supplier to their country.

The Ukrainian president also reminded that the trade turnover between Ukraine and Moldova in 2018 grew by 11% and amounted to almost USD 1 billion. At the same time, he expressed hope that the same indicator would be reached soon, "only without the word ‘almost”.
