KIEV, Feb. 22 – Ukraine's Western partners are concerned about the transit situation between Ukraine and Russia, Jan Tombinski, head of the EU Delegation to Ukraine said at a meeting with Ukrainian Infrastructure Minister Andriy Pyvovarsky.

The parties met on February 19, the infrastructure ministry reported.

The international community hopes that Ukraine will remain a reliable transit country, and that disruptions in the transit flow are temporary," the statement said.
