The implementation of the ongoing projects of the Government backed by the EBRD, as well as the possibilities for promoting cooperation in the direction of supporting strategic projects that the Government is going to carry out in the period to come were the topics discussed by Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski and the President of the European Bank for Development Promotion Suma Chakrabarti.

According to the government announcement, Gruevski and Chakrabarti agreed that in recent years the EBRD had provided substantial assistance for the Macedonian economy, financing a number of sustainable energy and energy efficiency projects, transport projects through construction and reconstruction of roads and railways, and providing direct or indirect support through partner banks, and through investments in agriculture, agribusiness and small and medium enterprises.
