President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov, speaking at the 16th Summit of the Economic Cooperation Organization in Tashkent on Thursday, called on the ECO member countries to create joint transport and logistics centers with the participation of government agencies and private companies, TDH reports.
“It is obvious that our economic partnership will develop successfully and in fact become effective in the presence of modern transport and communication networks that include the entire ECO space,” said the head of Turkmenistan.
Serdar Berdimuhamedov emphasized the important role of Eurasian transport corridors in ensuring the prosperity of the continent. In this context, ECO plays a key role. Therefore, the construction of roads, bridges, terminals and other facilities is one of the main areas of cooperation.
One of the priorities of the Turkmen state was the establishment of multimodal cargo transportation from China to Europe through Central Asia using the ports of the Caspian Sea, the Persian Gulf and the Black Sea.
In addition, according to the President of Turkmenistan, it is important for the ECO to develop transport diplomacy in the international arena and increase cooperation with relevant UN structures.
