Yuriy Yekhanurov positively assessed the activities of the regional executive authority, since the growth rate of industrial output is 21.9%. This year, 120 million hryvnias in investments have already flowed into the region's industry.
Yuriy Yekhanurov believes that Volyn's border location should promote ties with EU countries. The region should develop an original strategy for regional development, playing by the rules of the European Union. This should become a model for other regions? – said the Prime Minister.
