«Our main focus is multimodal business. We’re talking about the reconstruction and development of terminals throughout Ukraine. Currently, we are building a robust network of container terminals. There will be new European cross routes that will enable both European and Ukrainian clients to operate efficiently. Essentially, it will be like a single ticket: a unified tariff and a clear approach in terms of speed and price,” emphasized Lyashchenko.

According to Lyashchenko, Ukrzaliznytsia has already launched container trains that transport not only commodities (such as raw materials: coal, grain, ore) but also high-value consumer goods (known as fast-moving consumer goods).
