Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan support UN resolution on strengthening the links between all modes of transport

AKIPRESS.COM - UN General Assembly's Second Committee (Economic and Financial) approved a draft resolution “strengthening the links between all modes of transport to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals” without a vote.

Turkmenistan’s delegate said development of transport enhanced connectivity of strategic interests by stimulating the mutual flow of goods and services. Transport, which could ensure development progress, enhance the quality of life and protect the environment, needed cooperation among Governments, civil society and the private sector.

The representative of Uzbekistan said his country supported the resolution. His state was landlocked and was in support of efforts to contribute to the enhancement of transport. Noting work to boost exports to Afghanistan and the global market, he highlighted transport and infrastructural improvements. In that regard, he called for other States to support the text.
