Ukrainian Railways and Polish state rail operator PKP have signed an agreement to facilitate intermodal logistics between Europe and Asia. The two countries will focus on improving border crossings and creating transit corridors. In line with that development, Ukraine also signed an agreement with the European Railway Agency to further strengthen the country\u2019s integration with the European rail network.<\/strong>

In spite of that, \u201cUkraine remains a promising country for building diversification connections between Asia and EU countries\u201d, the company says.
