Today Russian President Vladimir Putin will discuss the transportation corridor “North-South” unique project realization with Head of Azerbaijan, Ilham Aliyev, and Irani Leader, Hassan Rouhani.
As “Interfax” reports today, the project includes the construction of the 172 km long railway main from the Irani city of Resht to Astara in Azerbaijan.
The unique railway main will allow to create the direct railway connection along the western secondary line of the “North - South” international transportation corridor.
To remind you, the eastern secondary line of the corridor through Iran, Turkmenia, Kazakhstan and Russia was put in operation in 2015.
