On Tuesday, Pakistan, Uzbekistan, and Afghanistan reached an agreement to connect Central Asia with Pakistan via a train link crossing via Afghanistan.
The three nations inked the ‘Uzbekistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan (UAP) Railway project’ in Islamabad to develop a rail link that will run through Uzbekistan’s Termiz, Afghanistan’s Mazar-i-Sharif and Logar, and enter Pakistan via the Kharlachi border crossing.
The breakthrough occurred during the thirteenth trilateral working group meeting, which took place on Monday in Islamabad, where the three countries agreed on a roadmap for performing a bankable feasibility study, exploring finance resources, and other essential factors for the project’s early implementation.
