Ambassador Albert P. Khorev's Comment to the Russian Newspaper “Izvestia”(August 8, 2026) ❓️ Are Russia and Pakistan working on launching a pilot freight railway route along the Minsk–Moscow–Karachi corridor? If so, what is the current status of the project? 💬 Albert P. Khorev: Together with our Pakistani partners, we are working on launching the first freight railway route along the Moscow–Faisalabad and Moscow–Karachi corridors in both directions. The possibility of involving the Belarusian side in the project is also being considered. Due to the escalation of geopolitical tensions in the region in 2025 and early 2026, the implementation of the project has been postponed several times. 🤝 At present, the parties are finalizing the contract for the provision of services and identifying companies in the countries along the proposed route that are interested in transporting their goods. #RussiaPakistan
