BAKU, April 28 – Ukraine wants to take an active part in the implementation of the Euro-Asian Oil Transport Corridor (EAOTC) project, Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych said.

"Ukraine also wants to actively participate in this project, particularly through the provision of transit services. As for European consumers, they will get the shortest route, and therefore a cost-effective way to deliver Caspian oil to make full use of their oil refining capacity," he said in an interview with Azerbaijan's Trend news agency published on Thursday.
