The highway connection between Slovakia and Ukraine has been discussed more intensively ever since the Russian invasion.

On Monday, the Slovak and Ukrainian sides agreed on the connection at the D1 Highway at the Vyšné Nemecké - Uzhhorod crossing.

In Slovakia, the new highway should start near the village of Bidovce, where an existing connection to Košice already exists, and end at the Slovak-Ukrainian border in Vyšné Nemecké.
In the past, a different connection was considered.
