maritime corridor

Last year, Ukrainian seaports handled a record 97.2 million tons of cargo, while Danube ports handled 17.3 million tons, compared to 32 million tons in 2023.

The Naval Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine ensured the passage of more than 9 thousand vessels through the maritime corridor in 2024.

By the end of the year, Ukraine plans to reach about 77 million tons in agricultural exports.

The European Commission’s Directorate-General for Mobility and Transport (DG MOVE) will continue to support transport infrastructure development projects.

At the 133rd session of the IMO, Ukraine called for the introduction of constant monitoring of the security situation in the Black Sea-Azov region.

In total, 3,118 vessels passed through the Ukrainian maritime corridor during its operation.

The Commander of the Navy of Ukrainian Armed Forces, Vice Admiral Oleksiy Neizhpapa, checked the readiness of the ship and boat tactical groups that protect the security of the “grain corridor” and the Black Sea.

During the operation of the maritime corridor, 79.1 million tons of cargo were exported from Ukraine.

Testing will begin next year and will focus on areas of the border that are most vulnerable to illegal crossings.

Russian shelling resulted in damage to more than 300 objects of port infrastructure. In particular, more than 100,000 tons of agricultural products were destroyed.
