Countries are encouraged to make use of TIR and CMR.

 

The International Transport Forum in Turkmenistan brought together leaders from business, government and international organisations to discuss a range of issues. IRU was there.


Ashgabat, Turkmenistan’s capital city, hosted an International Transport Forum last week, which brought together over 300 delegates representing public and private sectors, international organisations and development partners.

 

The Government of Turkmenistan invited IRU to moderate the main plenary session, focusing notably on post pandemic recovery of the transport and logistics sector, and the resulting challenges and opportunities that transport is facing.

 

As many speakers noted, in the context of current trade and transport disruptions, global logistics flows and supply chains are diversifying their geography. As a result, newly evolving corridors are connecting North and South, and East and West.

 

Participants agreed that the public and private sector must join efforts in order to increase the capacity of existing corridors and prepare new corridors to carry more freight volumes by leveraging trade facilitation with a focus on security. Instruments from key UN conventions, such as TIR and CMR, are already available and operational to enable this. And they are available in digital formats. Read more
