This country’s head of state has called for a more effective use of instruments that promote investment and economic growth, such as the Three Seas Initiative. “The Eastern European countries have a common objective- to achieve accelerated social and economic cohesion with their Western European partners by improving transport, energy and digital connectivity in their region”, noted President Radev.
