The document has been developed by the Ministry of Regional Development with the purpose of redistributing the funds saved on the Lithuania - Poland – Russia programme (22.35 million euros) to the construction of the Borisoglebsk checkpoint on the Norwegian-Russian state border, as part of the Kolarctic programme.
The redistribution of the funds aims to strengthen cross-border cooperation, contribute to economic development in the regions and increase the welfare of the population.
The implementation of the directive will not require additional spending by the federal Government. Russia’s contribution to the programme will be paid on the basis of earlier decisions.
