KYIV, April 17 - The Ukrainian state must find tools to return large container lines to the seaports of Odesa region: Maersk, MSC, CMA and others, said Oleksiy Yanovsky, director of logistics and procurement of the industrial company Interpipe.

“The key issue today for Interpipe remains the resumption of direct ship calls of large container lines to the ports of Odesa. This will significantly reduce the cost and delivery time of products to the Middle East, especially against the backdrop of restrictions due to naval attacks by the Houthis in the Red Sea,” said the expert.
