The EU Delegation in Ukraine calls on the Verkhovna Rada to pay attention to the bills on reforming the transport sector. This is stated in the statement of the EU Ambassador to Ukraine Hyuga Mingarelli, published on the page of the representation in Facebook. The EU-Ukraine association agreement provides for the reform of road, rail, air, sea and inland water transport. In the context of the obligations set out in the Association Agreement, transport is one of the "most massive industries", which involves the transfer of 48 regulations and EU directives in various sub-sectors. "Unfortunately, so far progress has been very limited, and for three years the Verkhovna Rada has not adopted a single bill to reform the transport sector," the commentary says.. The representative office noted that now the most prepared is the bill on inland water transport. The EU supports the adoption of legislation in accordance with the requirements of the Association Agreement between Ukraine and the EU. "This will provide a basis for future investments in inland water transport of Ukraine and will be one of the first important steps in reforming the country's transport sector," the ambassador said..
