KYIV, Nov 17 – Subject to the full operation of the sea corridor, more than 50% of export shipments in 2024 will be carried out by sea, Deputy Minister of Communities, Territories and Infrastructure Development Yuriy Vaskov said at the Infrastructure Day 2023, organized by the European Business Association in Kyiv on Friday.

"We expect that in 2024 more than 50% of export traffic will be carried out by sea. As was the case with the grain initiative when it worked - 52% (of shipments) was through the ports of Greater Odesa, the remaining 48% - through the Danube and Western borders. Plus or minus, this will be the case in all sectors," the deputy minister said.
