ASTANA, Kazakhstan, June 18. Kazakhstan and

Trans-Caspian International transport Route (TITR, or Middle
Corridor), Trend reports.
Negotiations on this topic took place between the Minister of
Transport of Kazakhstan, Marat Karabayev, and the State Counselor
for the Prime Minister of Romania, Florin Spataru.
Thus, the parties reviewed the current state and future
development of transport systems in Kazakhstan and Romania, in
particular the TITR and the TRACECA International Transport
Corridor.
Following the meeting, the heads of the delegation reached an
agreement to further expand the prospects for cooperation as well
as to create sustainable ties between carriers of the two
countries.
The interlocutors also paid attention to the possibilities of
deepening cooperation in the fields of railway, aviation, sea, and
road transport.
The Middle Corridor is a transportation and trade route that
connects Asia and Europe, passing through several countries in the
region. It is an alternative route to the traditional Northern
Corridor and Southern Corridor.
The route starts in China and crosses Central Asian countries
such as Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and Turkmenistan. It then passes
through the Caspian Sea, Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Türkiye before
reaching Europe.
The Middle Corridor offers a land route that connects the
eastern parts of Asia, including China, with Europe, bypassing the
longer maritime routes.
