‘The International Union of Railways supports the initiative of the “RZD-Partner” magazine about holding the “Green Logistics: Ideas. Practice. Prospects” forum. This event gives us a chance to identify opportunities for the green development of the transport sector, to discuss difficulties that may arise on the way, and to strengthen our cooperation.
