Moldova’s Ministry of Infrastructure and Regional Development (MIDR) is in talks with the Ukrainian side regarding the railway transport of grain in transit through the national territory to the port of Constanţa in Romania, announced Moldpres, citing MIDR. The institution argued that the Moldovan Railway has an important economic opportunity to attract additional volumes of freight, and the application of temporary tariff reductions for large transport volumes is a practice used internationally. Former head of Moldovan Railways Oleg Tofilat estimated that such a corridor could handle 4.5 million tons per year, while Ukrainian estimates indicate about 10% of the country's exports. The Agriculture Ministry in Kyiv has reduced its export forecast for the 2026-2027 season to 38-40 million tons, from 43 million, due to Russian attacks on ports. Comvex handled 5.09 million tons through its grain terminal last year, up from 4.79 million tons in 2024.
