WHAT DOES UKRFERRY PROPOSE ARMENIA?
By the suggestion of the Embassy of Ukraine in Armenia, the Union of Armenian Manufacturers and Entrepreneurs organized a round-table discussion, to which were present representatives of the "UkrFerry" company from Ukraine, specializing in Poty-Illichevsk ferry transportations and the representatives of a number of Armenian transportation companies.
President of the Union of Armenian Manufacturers and Entrepreneurs Arsen Kazarian informed the reporters that the Ukrainian side proposes to establish a new container transportation system on Poty-Illichevs route. Mr. Kazarian said that the necessity to establish a new transportation system is explained by impossibility of railway ferry transportation in times of emergency situations, as, for example, a couple of months ago. The efficiency of the container ferry transportation shall be proved after a while. As the railway ferry transportation remains the cheapest, the aforementioned discussion was dedicated to finding ways to make container transportation as efficient and as affordable.
