Georgia. Nizami Mammadzade – APA. Baku-Tbilisi-Kars railway is very significant project, whereas, the international arena did not support this project. This is a strategic project which needs large funds and is implemented by Azerbaijan, Georgia and Turkey, professor, economical expert Vladimir Papava said.
According to him, the VTK is one of the international projects which are included in the Silk Road project: “Earlier, the Silk Road project mainly included pipelines and transport corridor, not it also includes railway.
