He added that the direct flight, which had been closed, if re-opened, would satisfy the demand for travel between the two countries’ people and tourists.

According to Ambassador Olksiy Shovioplias, the negotiations of the Convention on International Direct Railway Traffic were officially carried out in late 2016 by the Organization for Cooperation of Railways (OSJD), and so far 50 of 73 articles of the draft convention have been completed.

“During the negotiation sessions, Vietnam and Ukraine, as OSJD members, have actively joined in reaching a consensus on the provisions,” he said, expressing his hope that the two sides would continue to share a common voice with the following provisions.

Noting that Vietnam always strictly realizes rules of treatment, as the role of a OSJD member, Deputy Minister Nguyen Ngoc Dong confirmed that Vietnam would have active viewpoints for reaching a consensus on following provisions with other members.

Supporting the Ukraine Ambassador’s proposal on opening the Kiev - Ho Chi Minh city direct flight, he said the Vietnamese side would make favorableconditions for Ukraine’s airlines./.
