The expert drew attention to the fact that the map indicates the importance of increasing the volume of transit trade, organization of a free trade area, the creation of logistics and trade centers, increasing freight traffic on the East-West corridor and North-South cooperation, the creation of a port complex in Alat, completion of railway projects Baku-Tbilisi-Kars and Astara-Astara.
Hasanov stressed that the document indicates the need to establish working groups and the definition of goals, improving the regulatory framework, cooperation with foreign experts, the development of investment plans.
