ASHGABAT, Turkmenistan, December 18. Belarusian
logistics operator Beltamozhservice has launched a new express rail
route for exporting goods to Iran via Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan,
Trend reports via the
Beltamozhservice.
The new service provides international container shipments along
the Belarus-Russia-Kazakhstan-Turkmenistan-Iran corridor. Delivery
time along the route ranges about two weeks, making it one of the
fastest and most convenient transport options in the region.
"The introduction of this new route is expected to significantly
diversify Belarusian exports, fortify the position of domestic
suppliers in international markets, and broaden the geographical
reach of Belarusian products," stated Natalya Kananovich, Deputy
General Director of Beltamozhservice.
She further emphasized that this innovative logistics solution
is poised to enhance trade efficiency and improve connectivity with
Middle Eastern markets, particularly Iran. This is particularly
pertinent in light of the growing demand for reliable transit
corridors.
Earlier, Iran’s Minister of Roads and Urban Development,
Farzaneh Sadegh, affirmed Iran's readiness to expand freight
transport and transit with Belarus under the framework of the
International North-South Transport Corridor. This declaration was
made during a meeting with Belarus’ Minister of Industry, Andrei
Kuznetsov, on December 8.
The International North-South Transport Corridor is a
comprehensive multimodal trade route linking Iran with Europe,
Russia, and Central Asia through three key routes: the Caucasian,
Central Asian, and Caspian corridors.
