Euronews aired a
special program on the Trans-Caspian Fiber-Optic Cable Line,
one of the region’s most important digital connectivity projects.
The “Azerbaijan Diary” program highlighted that, as a key component
of the Digital Silk Way
initiative, the project envisions the first fiber-optic
infrastructure to be laid along the seabed of the Caspian Sea.
Emil Masimov, Chairman of the Board of AzerTelecom, mentioned
the benefits the project will bring to the rapidly developing
Middle Corridor and shared the latest updates on its
implementation. He emphasized that the sustainable fiber-optic line
will significantly accelerate the development of the region’s ICT
ecosystem: “The Trans-Caspian Fiber-Optic Cable Line will operate
as a strategic digital route, enabling shorter, more balanced, and
diversified data transmission between Europe and Asia.”
The program also presented detailed information about the
project’s key technical features. It was noted that, with
construction expected to be completed by the end of 2026, the cable
line will reduce technological dependency in the region, broaden
access to digital services, and create new opportunities for
countries, businesses, and communities.
We are pleased to present a special Euronews program focusing on
the Trans-Caspian Fiber-Optic Cable Line Project:
