Uzbekistan and Tajikistan have announced the launch of a multimodal transport corridor that will connect China with Europe through Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Iran, and Turkey, bypassing the territory of Kazakhstan. This information was announced by the Executive Committee of the CIS.
The project will start with a test run, during which ten trucks with cargo will travel from Uzbekistan to China through Tajikistan.
