In Romania, they discussed the possibility of increasing Ukrainian exports through the Danube

Deputy Prime Minister for Restoration of Ukraine Oleksandr Kubrakov discussed ways to increase Ukrainian exports through the Danube with international partners.

Minister Kubrakov announced the meeting on Facebook.

“Today in Galati, Romania, as part of the meeting, Ukraine – USA – European Commission – Romania – Moldova worked on ways to increase Ukrainian exports. The Romanian part of the Danube, in conditions of limited navigation, is important for the reorientation of exports,” the message says.

According to Kubrakov, the development of navigation on the Danube remains one of the priority issues, the key areas of work on which are speeding up the passage of ships through the canals, increasing the throughput capacity on the Sulina Canal and organizing additional places for carrying out raid transshipment of ships near the Romanian port of Constanta.

Work is also underway to include the Ukrainian part of the Danube in the maps of the Trans-European Network of Inland Navigation Routes (TEN-T), which will contribute to the full-fledged operation of business on the market of Ukrainian Danube transportation.

“All our actions are aimed at achieving one goal – to provide as many opportunities as possible for Ukrainian exporters. From this, both the defense capability and the economy will win,” Kubrakov added.
