A trilateral agreement on the creation of a Russia (Tatarstan)-Turkmenistan-Afghanistan transport corridor is planned to be signed at KazanForum 2026, scheduled for May, according to Karavan Info news agency.

This new route is seen as a promising alternative to the North-South Corridor, allowing for diversification of logistics and minimizing the risks associated with instability in the Middle East.

The project was initiated by Afghan Minister of Industry and Trade Nuruddin Azizi. It was at his suggestion that the first cargo deliveries along the future transport corridor will begin through Tatarstan.

It is noted that Oleg Korobchenko, Minister of Industry and Trade of the Republic of Tatarstan, is personally overseeing this issue.
