The Agency’s new ambassador

Alvydas Medalinskas is the new Ambassador of the Agency

An international expert on Ukrainian issues, a well-known political analyst, economist and former member of the Lithuanian Parliament has joined the circle of partners who consistently support the development of Odesa region at the international level.

As part of the signed memorandum of cooperation, Mr. Medalinskas officially became an ambassador of the Regional Development Agency of Odesa Region. His political and diplomatic experience, as well as a deep understanding of Ukraine’s European integration processes, is a strategic resource for strengthening the region’s international relations.

The Institute of Ambassadors is a tool that we actively use to promote the interests of Odesa region outside Ukraine. Our ambassadors are reputable personalities who represent the region on international platforms, open up new opportunities for partnership and help shape a positive image of the region in the world.

The first steps of our cooperation have already been planned: meetings in Vilnius and other Lithuanian cities with politicians, community leaders, representatives of business, culture and education, discussions of inter-municipal cooperation and development of institutional partnership with Lithuanian colleagues. This is systematic work aimed at long-term results.
