As part of the implementation of the memorandum of cooperation signed in May 2017, BETEN INGENIERIE INTERNATIONAL organized, from January 30 to February 2, several trilateral meetings which were an opportunity for representatives of the Ukrainian city of Mariupol to meet the municipal, regional and national authorities of the French Republic.

Thanks to BETEN, the Ukrainian delegation chaired by Mr. Vadim BOYTCHENKO, Mayor of Mariupol, discovered European practices in urban planning, landscaping, water management and waste treatment. This visit brought together the best French experts from the aforementioned fields, who shared their expertise and know-how.

The expert discussions were organized at national, regional and municipal level. The meeting with the presidents of the France-Ukraine friendship groups of the Senate and the National Assembly as well as with the representatives of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has made it possible to establish lines of cooperation between France and Ukraine, especially in the context of decentralized cooperation.

At regional and municipal level, exchanges with representatives of the cities of Caen, Le Havre, Vitry-sur-Seine and the Regional Council of Normandy have revealed several geographical, demographic and historical affinities with Mariupol, Ukrainian sea port city with an actual population of about 500,000 inhabitants.

The delegation was also welcomed by the management of the International Association of Port Cities (AIVP). This meeting was an opportunity to familiarize with the architecture and urban planning solutions of Le Havre in order to harmonize the waterfront and the port facilities.
