Enlargement Statements

Enlargement Statement 1

Economic growth induced by enlargement will give a new impulse to European trade and hence long-distance freight transport as well as inter-European tourism, hence long-distance passenger transport.
Assuming that the current prioritisation by new Member States of road transport comes to dominate, this will lead to an increase of the share of road in long-distance freight and passenger transport between East and West
