Armenia and Azerbaijan are also desperate

INSTC will give a big boost to India-Russia trade from 2022. Armenia is also interested in developing a branch of INSTC. The Kazakhstan–Turkmenistan route is the second branch of the INSTC, while the other branch is the Iran–Caspian Sea route. “It actually connects the Northern Sea Route to the Persian Gulf,” Putin said. This road is being built for the economic and social development of Eurasian and Global South countries. This allows easy access to each other’s markets. The Russian President said that we are ready to provide access to the rapidly growing markets of the Asia-Pacific region, which is of great importance for strengthening our country’s connectivity and political and economic plans. Therefore, interested countries are being invited, so that trade can be promoted in this corridor.
