KYIV, Dec 13 – Cargo handling in Ukrainian seaports for the first time in 11 years has reached 150 million tons, Minister of Infrastructure Vladyslav Krykliy has said.

"This volume was before the crisis in 2008 ... These are not only the achievements of manufacturers, carriers, stevedores and port workers – this is a new challenge for the entire industry. Transport infrastructure must be ready to cope with new loads, and we already see bottlenecks in logistics and are working to eliminate them," he said on Facebook.
