Lincolnshire signs co-operation agreement with Ukraine’s Kherson region

Representatives from the Kherson region in Ukraine have visited Lincolnshire and signed an agreement with councillors to work together to benefit both areas.

Oleksandr Prokudin, head of the Kherson regional military administration, joined Cllr Colin Davie, executive councillor for economy, environment and planning at the county council, in formalising an agreement between the two areas.

The Ukrainian Embassy has identified that Lincolnshire and the Kherson region have many similarities – both are largely rural regions with a strong farming and food production history, and a strong manufacturing base.

Cllr Colin Davie, said: “The UK and Ukraine have developed a positive relationship through the Homes For Ukraine programme and I am very proud that we have more than 1,000 people here in Lincolnshire under this scheme.

“Today marks the start of a journey to develop a strong partnership with the Kherson region that will see us learn from each other, build networks over time between businesses, connect research organisations, and support growth in both areas.”

Other members of the delegation from Kherson were the Head of the Internal and Information Policy Department and the Head of the Investment and Export Development Office.
