* Turkmenistan - Offers discount to Turkey for cargo transportation

-- Turkmenistan has made a 20-percent discount to Turkey for cargo transportation through the Caspian Sea... The Turkmen government made a decision on a discount on March 25. He earlier told Trend that Turkey can increase the cargo transportation with ro-ro vessels from Azerbaijan to Turkmenistan bypassing Iran.. As many as 1,582 trucks were sent to Central Asia from Turkey through Azerbaijan’s territory in January-February of 2016, or 7.3 times more than in the same period in 2015... Azerbaijan applied attractive transportation fees in late 2015 in an effort to become a major transport hub of the region. The country made a nearly 40-percent reduction in the transit cost of cargo transportations by large trucks to the Aktau and Turkmenbashi ports... The cost reduction for foreign carriers were made after simplification of transit procedures and reduction of tariffs for cargo transport, functioning to Kazakhstan’s Aktau port and Turkmenistan’s Turkmenbashi port... Also the Azerbaijan Caspian Shipping Company reduced tariffs by 20 percent in order to improve the attractiveness of maritime transportation of cars traveling from Turkey to Kazakhstan... Currently, Azerbaijan uses its location to provide transit of the Turkish goods to the countries of Central Asia, as Russia banned entrance of trucks from Turkey...
