BAKU, Azerbaijan, April 18. The development of
Central Asia’s transport and transit potential, including the
Middle Corridor, is one of the key areas of regional cooperation,
said Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of Uzbekistan, Muzaffar
Madrakhimov during a panel discussion at the Antalya Diplomacy
Forum in Türkiye, Trend reports.
“As maritime routes become increasingly vulnerable, land
corridors are gaining greater importance. Central Asia is once
again becoming a key link between East and West, and North and
South,” he noted.
Madrakhimov also emphasized that ensuring food security is an
important area of cooperation.
“Possessing significant agricultural potential, vast land
resources, and a strong fertilizer production base, our region can
play an important role in ensuring stable food supplies and
reducing price volatility in global markets,” he added.
