On April 29, at 13:00, the Valdai Club will hold an online discussion, titled “International Logistics in Closed Borders”.
Challenges have also arisen in the field of passenger transportation and tourism. In a number of countries, an initiative has already appeared to introduce so-called “immunity passports”, which could confirm that a person is safe for others.
Will the sharp reduction in air transportation provide a template for the dynamics of sea and land transport in the future? What impact did the pandemic have and what could it have on international logistics? How will the sharp drop in passenger traffic affect transport companies? What measures should be taken for the stable operation of supply chains and nodes? Does the situation affect food security? Participants of the expert discussion will answer these and other questions.

-
Rafael Schvartzman, Vice President of the International Air Transport Association in Europe;
-
Farid Shafiyev, Chairman of the Azerbaijan Centre for Analysis and International Relations
