The long-anticipated China-Kyrgyzstan-Uzbekistan Railway Project commenced construction on December 27, marking a pivotal step in enhancing trade and connectivity across Central Asia.
Kyrgyz President Sadyr Japarov, China’s National Development and Reform Commission Chairman Zheng Shanjie, and Uzbekistan’s Deputy Prime Minister Jamshid Khodjaev were among the dignitaries present. President Japarov called the railway a transformative project that would revolutionize regional transportation.
"This railway will connect China with Kyrgyzstan and serve as a gateway to Central Asia, the Middle East, and the European Union, including Türkiye," Japarov stated. He emphasized that the project would revive the historic Silk Road and deepen ties between Eastern and Western nations.
The trilateral cooperation agreement for the railway was signed on June 6 in Beijing, underscoring a shared commitment to fostering regional connectivity. Once completed, the railway is expected to serve as a vital trade corridor, significantly boosting commerce and economic development throughout Central Asia.
The project’s strategic importance goes beyond infrastructure, symbolizing strengthened partnerships between China, Kyrgyzstan, and Uzbekistan, while reinforcing Central Asia's role as a bridge between global markets.
