Karaismailolu noted that they also support the work on transferring UBAK documents to electronic media. In order to ensure the development of the UBAK Quota System it is important that we take decisions at the level of Ministers for the abolition of restrictions and reservesIn his speech Minister Karaismailolu noted that an important step was taken towards the development of the Multilateral Quota System with the Quality Charter accepted in 2015 and stated that since 2015 serious efforts have been made by the member states to ensure compliance with the Quality Charter He also noted that important steps were taken to ensure that all transporters operating within the scope of the Quota System compete on equal terms.Karaismailolu said Unfortunately our expectation that the Quality Charter will equalize the market conditions for the carriers of all member countries has not been realized. I regret to observe that no serious progress has been made in removing the restrictions and reserves in the system. In this context in order to ensure the development of the UBAK Quota System I believe that it is very important that we take a Ministerial decision on the removal of restrictions and reserves and direct the Highway Working Group.As Turkey we have implemented regulations to facilitate the transporters using electric vehicles in passenger and goods transportationUnderlining the importance of solving the visa problems faced by professional drivers and the abolition of tolls for the gradual liberalization of road goods transportation which is the main goal of the UBAK System under equal competition conditions Minister Karaismailolu continued his words as followsWork on electric and autonomous vehicles is another important process within the scope of our goals for climate change. In order to encourage electric vehicles we as Turkey have implemented regulations to facilitate transporters using electric vehicles in passenger and goods transportation. Similarly I believe that we should develop a structure that will encourage the use of electric vehicles in the UBAK System. For example I think that exempting transit transports with electric vehicles from the permit document in the first stage will be beneficial for our goals.International Transport Forum Ministerial Summit meeting Turkey Germany Argentina Belarus Belgium Canada Chile China Korea Croatia Denmark Spain USA Russian Federation Finland France Hungary Ireland Iceland Italy Japan Latvia Lithuania Luxembourg 40 countries participated including Malta Morocco Mexico Norway Netherlands Poland Portugal Slovak Republic Czech Republic Romania England Slovenia Sweden Switzerland Tunisia and Ukraine.
