Today, during CELBET Management meeting, a new activity has been launched: Task Force, which was created for assisting CELBET Member States in Ukrainian crisis management. First Task Force meeting, in a hybrid mode, was held in the CELBET office in Warsaw. Apart from management members and BCP Network members, Ukrainian Customs Attache in Brussels Mr. Igor Dankov and Mrs Lidia Ababii from Customs Service of Moldova participated.
