Azerbaijan Accelerates Middle Corridor Push With Central Asia Trade Deals

Azerbaijan is working hard this summer to build bridges across the Caspian Sea, announcing a variety of projects to expand Middle Corridor trade with Central Asian states.

In late June, Azerbaijan and Turkmenistan signed a series of agreements to foster energy cooperation and open a regular flow of goods between the two states. Since the start of July, Baku has launched similar initiatives with Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan.
