A key outcome of the meeting was the confirmation of readiness to launch the \u201cAktau International Container Hub\u201d LLP; preparatory work for the facility has been fully completed, and operations are scheduled to begin before the end of June of this year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The parties focused particularly on establishing a unified logistics chain linking the port of Lianyungang, the Khorgos Gateway dry port, and the future container hub in Aktau. Such integration will enable end-to-end transportation from the Yellow Sea coast \u2013 via Kazakhstan and the Caspian region \u2013 towards the Caucasus, Turkey, and Europe, thereby creating a sustainable transit corridor between Asia and Europe. Aldybergenov emphasized that over a decade of cooperation with Lianyungang has established a solid foundation for developing modern international routes and enhancing transport efficiency.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lianyungang, one of China\u2019s largest ports and a pivotal point of the Eurasian Land Bridge, plays a crucial role in the \u201cBelt and Road Initiative,\u201d in which KTZ has participated since 2013. It is noted that the Trans-Caspian International Transport Route continues to show growth: by the end of 2025, transport volume reached 42,000 TEUs (a 15% increase), and it rose by another 26% during the first five months of 2026. The parties reaffirmed their commitment to the continued joint development of transport corridors and the strengthening of the logistics partnership between Kazakhstan and China along the Eurasian route.<\/p>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Talgat Aldybergenov, Chairman of the Management Board of JSC \u201cNC \u2018Kazakhstan Temir Zholy&#8217;\u201d (KTZ), held talks with Zhou Jin, Mayor of the Chinese port city of Lianyungang, to discuss the expansion of joint logistics projects and investment cooperation.
