The State Property Fund (SPFU) plans to resume the privatization of the port infrastructure on the Danube and is preparing to put a facility currently used as a dry port up for sale, said the head of the SPFU, Vitaliy Koval. He did not specify which port is being prepared for sale. Previously, the SPFU sought to auction the Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi sea trade port. It is expected that it could become the second major port infrastructure item sold on the Prozorro platform since the start of the full-scale Russian invasion. Since April 2022, the Bilhorod-Dniester port has been used as a logistics center for ports on the Danube. It receives cargo on cars and sends them further in wagons. During the six months of operation following the resumption of operations, cargo handling at MTP increased 100 times compared to 2021. The port received more than 10,000 trucks and shipped 4,000 railcars. Previously, the SPFU sold the Ust-Dauna port for â‚´200M.
