The agreement aims to enhance container rail transportation between China and Europe through Central Asia, strengthening a key segment of the Middle Corridor — a growing transcontinental trade route that connects China to Europe via Kazakhstan, the Caspian Sea, the South Caucasus, and onward to European markets.

The memorandum outlines plans to expand cooperation along this corridor to improve logistics connectivity, increase freight volumes, and enhance the overall efficiency of transport routes. Key priorities include the modernization of railway infrastructure, adoption of digital technologies, and removal of administrative barriers at border crossings.
