Tajikistan will open freight railway communication with Turkey.
Photo: InternetOn October 18, an international conference titled “Logistics and its Advantages in the Development of Transport Communications of the Republic of Tajikistan with Countries of the Region” was held in Dushanbe.
Delegations from CIS countries, representatives of logistics companies, and leaders of transport organizations from the CIS and other countries participated in the conference.
The conference was organized by the Ministry of Transport of Tajikistan.
“Currently, work is actively underway to open a multimodal corridor Tajikistan – Uzbekistan – Turkmenistan – Iran – Turkey and further to European countries. We consider the use of this corridor effective in terms of reducing distances and lowering transportation costs compared to existing corridors,” said Minister of Transport Azim Ibrohim.
Another advantage of this corridor is its connection via road from Tajikistan to China, which contributes to the revival of the Great Silk Road and regional economic integration, the minister believes.
It is still unclear how exactly and within what timeframe these projects will be implemented.
