Trade corridor links Afghanistan with Turkey officially opened
(MENAFN) On Thursday, a landmark transport corridor was opened connecting landlocked Afghanistan with Turkey for trade by Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan, and Georgia.
The Lapis Lazuli project makes Afghanistan "not only the gateway to the Indian subcontinent, but once again the gateway to the Caucasus, Central Asia, and Europe," Mohammad Ashraf Ghani, Afghanistan's president, told a ceremony in the western city of Herat.
After decades of separation, he added, "today Afghanistan is reaching out. Afghans are people of connectivity, not separation."
He also expressed thanks to the Turkish, Turkmen, Azeri, and Georgian leadership for their support in making the project a reality.
