As part of the event, a round table of representatives of the maritime and port industry was held, during which the head of the Odesa branch of the State Enterprise “USPA” Dmytro Nazarenko made a report on the activities of Ukrainian ports under martial law.

According to him, since the beginning of the full-scale war of the Russian Federation against Ukraine, more than 500 port infrastructure facilities, 116 civilian vessels, 157 civilians were injured, and 161 facilities were damaged directly on the territory of the Odesa seaport.

The head of the Odesa branch of the State Administrative Service of the Ukrainian Port Authority emphasized the work of the Ukrainian maritime corridor, thanks to which since August 2023, the ports of Great Odesa have handled over 146.5 million tons of cargo and processed 5,596 vessels. In particular, the Odesa port has handled 1,528 vessels.

“Despite all the challenges, Ukrainian seaports remain an integral part of the economic stability of the state. Their security is a matter not only of logistics, but also of the survival of Ukraine’s export model,” emphasized Dmytro Nazarenko.
