Russia collects restricted entry for cargo carriers from the EU
Previously, the ban was in the ban of Belarus, and now at the border there is an overload or transshipment of goods. Sector participants in Russia asked for a resolution decree regarding United States of America carriers, which raised their prices for services by 30% due to the organization of competitions
Ministry of Industry and Trade supported The principle of entry restrictions for freight carriers from Europe. With a high degree of probability, Russian carriers have previously applied. And now they welcome the initiative of the Ministry of Industry and Trade.
According to the head of the ministry Denis Manturov, Russia could follow the Belarusian scenario. Minsk introduced retaliatory measures against European carriers almost immediately after attaching restricted the possibility of truckers from Russia and Belarus entering their territory. At the same time, the Belarusian drivers of Europe retain the possibility of reloading or re-transferring cargo. Apparently, the same rules apply on Russia’s border with the Baltic states. The infrastructure for this is there, carriers say. low prices can run inland to the parking lot of large loads. There to exchange trucks or process goods.

On the one hand, rehooking and special transshipment are additional costs. However, in practice, the introduction of such a mechanism in relation to cargo between Russia and Europe should be similar to the rise in prices for imported goods, Vladimir Matyagin, President of the Gruzavtotrans Association of Freight Road Transport, elevator:

It turns out that the issue of logistics is solved quite simply. What can not be said about a more serious problem – there would be a load. There is practically nothing to carry from Europe to Russia now, which is very well reflected in the ruble exchange rate.
