“In 2016, the European markets were opened for Ukraine. That means new opportunities and new challenges for us and we actively work towards the developing of best solutions for transportations through the territory of Ukraine and attract potential cargo owners, shippers and operators.”- said Volodymyr Omelyan. The Minister stressed on the necessity of the liberalization of transport on the continent: "The liberalization of road transport – is a key task for the Forum and for every member-state of this organization."

Along with this, the Minister of Infrastructure of Ukraine Volodymyr Omelyan said that the standards of International Transport Forum are uniform for all member-states, including the Russian Federation: “Those restrictions, which impose the Russian Federation towards Ukraine concerning freight transport, are unacceptable. No "convoys", even car convoys in the XXI century cannot be”.
