Foreign Ministers agreed that the countries should focus on impetus and opportunities in order to accelerate implementation phases and work together to provide financial support to the Adriatic-Ionian Corridor’s project. Recalling the Joint Declaration adopted at their first meeting in Split, Croatia, on 10 February 2017, Ministers reaffirmed the importance of this strategic platform of cooperation between the three countries, as a valuable mechanism contribùting to the security, stability and prosperity of the South East Europe. Ministers reiterated, once again, that the Adriatic Trilateral is an excellent example of how likeminded countries  can join their efforts to offer better synergies to the common regional agenda, as well as to effectively address internal and external challenges in South East Europe. They agreed that the third Adriatic Trilateral Ministerial will take place in Montenegro in 2018.
