Ukrainian and Russian Waterways and the Development of European Transport Corridors
European Transport \ Trasporti Europei n. 30 (2005): 14-36 Ukrainian and Russian waterways and the development of European transport corridors Michael Doubrovsky1∗ 1Odessa National Maritime University, Odessa, Ukraine Abstract Four of the nine international transport corridors pass through the territory of Ukraine: №3, №5, №7, and №9. In recent years Ukraine conducted an active policy supporting the European initiatives on the international transport corridors and offered variants of corridors to the European community. In the field of a water transport it is planned to carry out the construction of new and reconstruction of existing infrastructure (regarding corridors № 9; TRACECA; Baltic - Black Sea) in the main Ukrainian ports. The paper considers the situation in the Ukrainian waterways as a part of the international transport corridors. It presents an analysis of the existing situation and some planning measures. In order to optimize and rationally development the inland waterways and seaports of the Black Sea – Azov Sea region it is necessary to speed up the working out and official approval of the regional transport ways network. Regarding Ukrainian seaports this task is carried out within the framework of program TRACECA, and also by Steering Committee of Black Sea PETRA and working group on transport of the Organization of the Black Sea Economic Cooperation. To connect the new members countries of EU two approaches are considered: (1) the use of the Danube River due to restoration of navigation in its Ukrainian part, providing an exit to the Black Sea; (2) the creation of new inland water-transport links providing a more rational and uniform distribution of freight traffics from the Central and Northern Europe (using the third largest river in Europe - Dnepr River running into the Black Sea). -
STATEMENT by MR. ALEXANDER LUKASHEVICH, PERMANENT REPRESENTATIVE of the RUSSIAN FEDERATION, at the 1209Th MEETING of the OSCE PERMANENT COUNCIL
PC.DEL/1544/18 14 December 2018 ENGLISH Original: RUSSIAN Delegation of the Russian Federation STATEMENT BY MR. ALEXANDER LUKASHEVICH, PERMANENT REPRESENTATIVE OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION, AT THE 1209th MEETING OF THE OSCE PERMANENT COUNCIL 13 December 2018 More on Ukraine’s military provocation in the Black Sea Mr. Chairperson, Over the past two weeks, we have heard many unfounded accusations against Russia in connection with the actions of Russian border guards in the Black Sea on 25 November in response to the provocation by the Ukrainian navy. Using these events as a pretext, the Ukrainian delegation frustrated the adoption at the Ministerial Council meeting in Milan of a document on the settlement of the internal Ukrainian crisis and a political declaration. The situation surrounding this recent incident requires a detailed analysis. We shall therefore set out in detail the chronology of events so that no one is left with any doubt as to the provocative nature of the Ukrainian navy’s actions. I might add that they posed a danger to the countless non-military vessels that were present at that time in the waters of the Kerch Strait. In parallel, we shall show you some slides indicating where and how this happened. So, at 11.37 hours on 24 November, the Russian State Border Service reported the movement of four Ukrainian navy ships in the Black Sea heading towards the Russian coast: two support vessels and two gunboats. At 16.40, two Ukrainian navy ships, the Horlivka support vessel and the Yany Kapu ocean-going tugboat, were identified in Russia’s exclusive economic zone 20 nautical miles from the border. -
