During the negotiations, the parties discussed the prospects for the expansion of the investment, trade and transport-logistics partnership and defined the specific objectives of mutually beneficial cooperation, the MIFT press service reports.
The meeting also focused on the cooperation in the field of transportation. It was noted that according to the last yearās results, the volume of rail freight between the two countries increased by 10.7% to 1.47 million tons, and the volume of road freight increased by 38.2% to 1.49 million tons. The countries welcomed the launch of multimodal transport along the āUzbekistan - Kyrgyzstan ā Chinaā corridor on the section āAndijan - Osh - Irkeshtam ā Kashgarā, which has made it possible to achieve a substantial reduction in cargo and optimize the transport costs.
Due to the existing potential in this area, the ministers considered joint measures to increase the capacity of roads at border crossing points and to improve the conditions for the transit of passengers, vehicles and goods, including through the digitization of customs, health, transport and border control processes. In this context, they mentioned possibilities for establishing joint logistics hubs for combined freight transport.
