High-level representatives from various sectors, including the Romanian, Moldovan, and Ukrainian Embassies, Romanian ports administrations, and business representatives, convened to explore the core benefits of Romania's partial accession to the Schengen Area via Air and Sea.
As Pro Danube, we were honored to participate in discussions emphasising the importance of Danube Inland Waterway Transport (IWT) towards multimodality that goes hand-in-hand with climate neutrality and economic viability. The event highlighted the Danube's strategic position as an economic backbone, underscoring its key role in securing exports such as Ukrainian agricultural products through the Solidarity Lanes.
The symposium also highlighted Romania's strategic vision to enhance multimodality, focusing on waterborne and railway sectors alongside roads. Core projects to enhance IWT were presented, putting the spotlight on the collaborative Romanian - Bulgarian efforts to jointly address dredging issues on some critical sections of the Danube, aiming to secure uninterrupted navigation throughout the year. ๐ฃ๐ฟ๐ผ ๐๐ฎ๐ป๐๐ฏ๐ฒ ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐บ๐ฎ๐ถ๐ป๐ ๐๐๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฑ๐ณ๐ฎ๐๐ ๐ถ๐ป ๐ถ๐๐ ๐ฐ๐ผ๐บ๐บ๐ถ๐๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐ ๐๐ผ ๐ฐ๐ผ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ป๐๐ผ๐๐๐น๐ ๐บ๐ผ๐ป๐ถ๐๐ผ๐ฟ ๐๐ฎ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐น๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐น ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐น๐ผ๐ฝ๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ ๐ผ๐ป ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐๐ฒ๐ฐ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ฎ๐ป๐๐ฏ๐ฒ ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐ป๐ฒ๐ณ๐ถ๐ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ถ๐ป ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ถ๐ป๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐๐ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐ผ๐๐ฟ ๐๐ฎ๐น๐๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ฒ๐บ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐.
Moreover, discussions delved into the crucial role of EU funds in fostering multimodality and unlocking the full potential of a future-oriented European transport network. Investments in this regard were emphasised, paving the way for insightful dialogues on IWT's role in enhancing multimodality.
It was indeed a fantastic opportunity to engage in meaningful conversations and presentations, shedding light on the immense potential of Danube IWT and its contribution to a dynamic and sustainable transport landscape.
