During the meeting of the heads of delegations in the «SCO+» format within the framework of the next Summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO), the National Leader of the Turkmen people, Chairman of the Halk Maslahaty of Turkmenistan Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov, emphasizing that geographically Turkmenistan is a natural optimal link in this large project, confirmed the readiness to work with the SCO states in various formats and configurations within its framework. 

Speaking about the transport and transit segment, Hero-Arkadag singled out the route through Central Asia from China to Europe and the Middle East, specifying that we are talking about the China-Kyrgyzstan-Uzbekistan-Turkmenistan-Iran-Turkey corridor with access to Europe.

«For its effective functioning, it will be necessary to resolve, among other things, issues related to the cross-border movement of goods. In our opinion, we should talk about creating a most-favoured-nation regime for transport communications, providing tariff, customs and other preferences at border crossing points», –the National Leader of the Turkmen people emphasized.

In this context, a willingness was expressed to discuss this issue in detail with interested partners.

The Chairman of the Halk Maslahaty named the North-South corridor along the eastern coast of the Caspian Sea through the port city of Turkmenbashy and further south to the Iranian sea terminals in the Gulf as another significant combined route with the participation of Turkmenistan and the SCO countries.

According to Hero-Arkadag, the prospects for the participation of the SCO countries are in the context of uniting the resource, economic and transport potentials of Central Asia, India and Pakistan.
