THE PRESENT-DAY SITUATION OF THE TRANSPORT AND LOGISTICS SECTORS IN POLAND AND BELARUS AND THE CHALLENGES TO THEIR DEVELOPMENT

Summary/Abstract: Recently, the integration of countries into world trade flows has largely been due to the development of their logistics systems. For Poland and Belarus, the development of international logistics chains is very relevant due to their advantageous geographical location and the presence of modern transport corridors in the very center of Europe. Poland's share in international transport is high and accounts for almost a third in general EU transport. More than 100 million tons of European cargo passes through Belarus annually, about 90% of which are between the Russian Federation and the European Union.The purpose of the study is to identify factors influencing logistics activity efficiency in Poland and Belarus on the basis of a comparative analysis. To achieve this goal, the article looks at the development of transport and logistics activities in Poland and the Republic of Belarus, as well as the logistics efficiency of Poland and Belarus, analyzed on the basis of the LPI as developed by the World Bank. The analysis carried out within the framework of the study allowed the authors to determine the factors of effective the development of logistics in Poland, to identify the problems of the development of the logistics industry in the Republic of Belarus, and to assess the prospects for the development of logistics activities in these countries. The analysis is based on the statistical data of the National Statistical Committee of the Republic of Belarus and Central Statistical Office of Poland.
