Ukraine plans to create a "green corridor" for cargoes through Moldova and Romania in order to increase the throughput capacity at least 5 times.
The Ukrainian Ministry for Communities, Territories and Infrastructure Development announced this, noting that Ukraine initiates the creation of a "green corridor" through the Ukrainian checkpoint "Reni", Moldovan "Giurgiulesti" and Romanian "Galati" in order to speed up the movement of goods, particularly agricultural products. "The Ministry for Communities, Territories and Infrastructure Development started negotiations with Moldova and Romania on the creation of a "green corridor" between checkpoints Reni (Ukraine) - Giurgiulesti (Moldova) - Galati (Romania) to accelerate the movement of goods and exports of Ukrainian agricultural products", reads the message of the Ukrainian Department. It is noted that this issue became a key issue during the talks between Deputy Head of the Ministry Serhiy Derkach, State Secretary of the Ministry of Infrastructure and Regional Development of Moldova Mircea Pascaluta and State Secretary of the Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure of Romania Ionel Scriosteanu. "Thanks to this solution, we will be able to reduce the number of stops for trucks and speed up control accordingly. Globally, this decision will solve the issue of comprehensive infrastructure development on the Ukrainian-Moldovan-Romanian border," the Ukrainian Deputy Minister was quoted as saying. In addition to creating such a corridor, it is also planned to modernize checkpoints and widen the road. The Ministry of Communities, Territories and Infrastructure Development of Ukraine emphasizes that the key goal of the development of infrastructure of checkpoints and the creation of a "green corridor" is to increase the actual throughput capacity by at least 5 times. // 26.10.2023 - InfoMarket.
