ODESA, MARCH 16th, 2011, CONTEXT-PRICHERNOMORIE — An Odesa Regional State Administration official Sergiy Tetyukhin says Two or three ferries will be even more profitable for the Oblast, Context-Prichernomorie correspondent reports.

Mr Tetyukhin stated it yesterday, 15 March, at the sitting of the Transport Potential Development working group of the Regional Committee for Economic Reforms.

“Odesa Regional State Administration will initiate the talks with the Romanian side on the construction of ferries Orlovka—Isaccea and Izmail—Tulcea at the level of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine. All we need is to conceptually determine where this international crossing point should be located. Preliminary, we planned to designate two projects: Tulcea—Izmail and Isaccea—Orlovka”, he said.

“But I think that Odesa Oblast will benefit even more if two and three ferries have been organized. It is important we identify specific points for further negotiations with Romania”, the official added.
