    Vladimir Chernievski, commercial director of the Ukrainian ferry
    company Ukrferry, wraps up a three-day visit to Armenia today, having
    discussed ways to improve ferry transit from Ilichevsk to Poti and
    Batumi with businessmen and government officials.

    Chernievski met Armenian Minister of Transport and Communication
    Andranik Manukyan as well as the Union of Industrialists, according
    to Armenian news agency Panorama.

    Ukrferry used to have a monopoly on Armenian cargo ferry
    transportation, but has experienced serious competition from the
    Russian-run Kavkaz-Poti route which went operational in 2007. The
    Ukrainian embassy in Yerevan released a statement saying the recent
    visit was aimed at increasing economic ties between the two countries.
