The XXVIII CCTT Plenary Meeting will be held on 19-20 September 2019 in Nur Sultan, Kazakhstan

Kazakhstan traditionally occupies a special position in the center of the Eurasian continent, playing the role of a transit bridge between Asia and Europe. Today, air, rail and road routes pass through the territory of Kazakhstan, contributing to the development of transit freight traffic in China-Europe-China. The annual growth of Eurasian transit railway transportation is provided by the development of industrial centers in the west of China, sending their products by rail through the territory of the CIS countries with further access to the "Trans-Siberian Railway", where Kazakhstan is the main window for Chinese goods.
