He said three strategic logistics routes stand out: the “Development Road” project linking Turkiye to southern Iraq for cargo and energy transport; the Zangezur corridor aimed at strengthening the Middle corridor by ensuring direct connectivity between Turkiye and Turkic states; and the restoration of the Hejaz railway route connecting Turkiye, Syria, Jordan, and the Hejaz region of Saudi Arabia.
