One of the promising transport projects is the Trans-Caspian International Transport Route (TITR).
As Day.Az reports, the President of Kazakhstan Kassym-Jomart Tokayev stated this when answering questions from the media.
“Transportation of goods via TMTM in 2023 increased by 65% - to 2.8 million tons, including a 2.5-fold increase in exports of Kazakhstani products. Along with exports, there is an increase in import cargo traffic. This, in turn, shows interest European companies on the Trans-Caspian route,” Tokayev emphasized.
According to him, last year the railway administrations of Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan and Georgia created a joint venture, Middle Corridor Multimodal Ltd, in order to establish logistics services based on the “single window” principle, unify the tariff policy and ensure the stability of transportation along the TMTM.
“Currently, a number of European countries have expressed a desire to join this route, and some are already carrying out this work. In this regard, the importance of the South Caucasus in the transport system of Eurasia has increased significantly,” added the President of Kazakhstan.
