Nou coridor pentru cerealele Ucrainei: Kievul vrea să ocolească atacurile rusești prin Moldova și Constanța
Ukraine is seeking an alternative route for grain exports due to increased Russian attacks on ports. Negotiations with Moldova focus on railway transport to Constanta, with Ukraine requesting a 50% reduction in fees. Moldova seeks guarantees on transport volumes to assess profitability. A functional corridor could handle about 4.5 million tons annually, making Constanta a strategic export point. This shift is crucial for Ukraine's economy, as agriculture is a key export sector, with recent forecasts for grain exports being lowered significantly. Moldova sees this as a financial opportunity through transit fees.
