Prime Minister Vasile Tofan and Energy Minister Dorin Junghietu today had a meeting with Ukraine’s First Deputy Prime Minister, Energy Minister Denys Shmyhal. The officials discussed primarily the management of energy and hydrological crises.

One of the main topics was the hydrological situation on the Dniester River. Although the situation along the river’s upper course stays complicated, the Ukrainian side agreed to increase by approximately 20 per cent the water discharge from the Novodnistrovsk Hydropower Complex compared with the previous period.

A separate part of the meeting was dedicated to the energy crisis. The PM discussed cooperation in the field of natural gas and electricity with the Ukrainian official. The talks are expected to continue during Prime Minister Tofan’s visit to Kyiv at the end of this month.

The two officials also agreed to maintain permanent contact, in order to make joint decisions on managing energy and hydrological crises.
