Islamabad: Pakistan has reaffirmed its commitment to the Uzbekistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan railway corridor, describing the project as a strategic initiative for enhancing regional connectivity and trade. Officials believe the railway link will provide shorter and more efficient transport routes between Central and South Asia, helping reduce logistics costs and improve cross-border commerce. The corridor is also expected to strengthen economic integration, facilitate exports, and support broader infrastructure development across the region. Experts suggest that improved rail connectivity can attract investment into logistics hubs, industrial zones, and trade-related infrastructure. As regional cooperation gains momentum, the project could become a key driver of economic growth and connectivity. Can this railway corridor reshape trade routes across Central and South Asia?
