As of today, while on a working trip to Zaporizhzhia region, Ukrainian Prime Minister Volodymyr Groisman has said he believes that it is important for Ukrainian economy to develop river transport, Ukrinform reports.
«The development of our river transport is a very important element. It is almost halted. We can use our river potential for goods transfer around the world. We need a new legislative framework as well as support of the river fleet,» the Prime Minister admitted.
As to the report, Groisman noted that the revival of river transport and use of river and sea routes would boost the development of logistics capabilities of many economic spheres, in particular the agricultural sector.
He has also noted the important role of Nibulon company, which has its own shipbuilding enterprises.
«Today, the company signed an agreement with the International Finance Corporation worth millions of dollars to develop the entire river infrastructure. As soon as we finance more and attract the river into economic life, the economy will also develop,» Groisman said.
