European countries have displayed an interest in the United Transport and Logistics Company (UTLC), head of the JSC Russian Railways (RZD) Vladimir Yakunin said.
“We speak of the transport corridor from the Pacific to Atlantic. Even in the sanctions conditions Italy, Spain, Austria and Germany have displayed an interest in it,” Yakunin said. “UTLC should give an impetus to the development of the transport sphere of the Eurasian Economic Union (EEU) countries, on the other hand it is a good instrument for the expansion of our co-operation with Asian, first of all Chinese railways,” the RZD head said, adding that the talk of UTLC monopoly is premature today. “Unfortunately, railway transport so far accounts for less than 30% of container transportation,” he said.
