Turkish trucks carrying goods which stuck on the Russian customs will go to the Central Asia through Azerbaijan, reported the Turkish edition of the Daily News. Baku has given permission to do so, said the Association of International Carriers. At the same time, the cost of transit through Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan and Kazakhstan will be reduced for trucks by 40%. The fee for the ferry from Baku across the Caspian Sea will be reduced by 20%.
