Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that Russia would block grain corridors.

In the Vylkivska community of Odesa region, they plan to create an eco-industrial park “Vylkove”.

The cost of transporting cargo by barge from the Ukrainian Danube ports of Reni and Izmail to Constanta, Romania, has almost doubled since the beginning of July, to about $28 per ton.

The countries agreed to continue cooperation with partners to strengthen alternative logistics routes and grain export routes.

Despite the recent attacks by the Russian Federation on the ports of Great Odesa, there is currently no sharp increase in demand for transportation on the Danube.

Feeder operator Maersk Ukraine emphasizes that the situation in the ports has deteriorated critically, and shipowners are massively refusing to enter the ports.

At the height of the harvest on July 22, not a single ship passed through the Ukrainian maritime corridor.

Russian attacks on the port infrastructure of the Odesa region increase the cost of logistics and affect the purchase prices of grain.

The company summed up the results of the 2026 fiscal year, while noting that the new season began in conditions of increased military risks for port infrastructure.

The Head of the Shipping Administration, Serhiy Gurskyi, held a meeting with the Logistics Committee of the European Business Association.
