The MoU was signed virtually by Humaid Mohammed bin Salem, Secretary-General of the FCCI, and Sergiu Harea, President of Moldova’s Chamber of Commerce and Industry, in the presence of Salem Ahmed Salem Al Kaabi, UAE Ambassador to Ukraine, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary, and Non-Resident Ambassador to Moldova, and Victor Haruta, Ambassador of Moldova to the UAE.
During the signing, Mr. Humaid bin Salem has emphasized the importance of the council, which will support both the two countries’ business communities by facilitating cooperation.
He also stated that the private sectors of both countries will play a key role in promoting commercial partnerships as well as enabling investors and business owners to participate in one of Eastern Europe’s most important markets and benefit from commercial opportunities in a variety of sectors, including logistics, tourism, and agriculture.
