The Kazakhstan-Turkmenistan-Iran railway can prepare easier situation for transferring energy and oil products swap in the region, the Islamic Republic president Hassan Rouhani said, during the inauguration ceremony of the new line that connects the three countries.
He said that the railway can connect the members of Economic Cooperation Organization (ECO) to Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) countries.
“Alongside the railway new roads should be constructed and new maritime routes should be established between Caspian Sea littoral states,” Rouhani said.
He also said that the Islamic republic is ready to increase the railway’s capacity through cooperation with Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan.
The railway project gives easier access for Turkmenistan and Kazakhstan to the Gulf, Sea of Oman, China, Turkey, Europe and the Mediterraneans, Rouhani added.
