ASTANA, Kazakhstan, June 22. Kazakhstan has
called on Serbia to more actively use the expanding opportunities
of the Trans-Caspian International transport Route (TITR, or Middle
Corridor), Trend
reports.
This topic was discussed during a meeting between the Ambassador
of Kazakhstan to Serbia Madi Atamkulov and the Minister of Internal
and Foreign Trade of Serbia Tomislav Momirović.
Thus, Atamkulov pointed out the importance of thinking outside
the box when it comes to diversifying bilateral trade turnover. He
emphasized the need to seize the bull by the horns and make more
proactive use of the expanding opportunities of the Middle
Corridor.
In turn, Momirović pointed out that official Belgrade pays great
attention to the development of relations with Kazakhstan, both at
the political and economic levels.
"Serbia is interested in implementing joint economic projects,"
he said. In this regard, in order to explore new opportunities for
cooperation, Momirović expressed his readiness to visit Kazakhstan
with a Serbian business delegation at the beginning of 2025.
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.
