The Indian Embassy in Abu Dhabi emphasized the importance of the visit in a press statement, underscoring the commitment of both nations to the IMEEC’s success.
The IMEEC is designed to establish efficient alternative supply routes that will enhance logistics, cut costs, and boost trade. It features two primary segments: the east corridor linking India with the Gulf, and the northern corridor connecting the Gulf to Europe.
This corridor will offer a dependable and economical ship-to-rail transit network to complement existing maritime pathways.
The project aims to secure regional supply chains, increase trade access, foster economic collaboration, create job opportunities, and lower greenhouse gas emissions. These objectives will collectively transform the integration of Asia, Europe, and the Middle East.
Both parties agreed to maintain ongoing discussions to expedite the Agreement’s implementation.
The IMEEC framework promotes collaboration in developing the corridor and exploring joint investments and technical partnerships to achieve its ambitious goals.
