The main topic of this year’s summit is further support for Ukraine and assistance in rebuilding its war-ravaged infrastructure. The continued development of infrastructure and connectivity on the EU’s north-south axis will also be discussed. Yet another focus will be placed on strategic infrastructure projects in the region, cooperation in the fields of energy, the economy and digitization, as well as on scaling up the initiative.
The Three Seas Initiative brings together twelve EU countries located between the Baltic, Black and Adriatic Seas: Austria, Bulgaria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, and Slovenia. 3SI strategic partners are the United States, Germany and the European Commission. The initiative aims to promote accelerated development and convergence in the region by improving connectivity between the participating countries in transport, energy and digitalization along the north-south axis, strengthening cohesion in the European Union and enriching transatlantic links between the European Union and the United States.
