Afghanistan and Turkmenistan have agreed to deepen transport and transit cooperation, including the creation of a joint commission to address road-transport issues, Pajhwok reported on September 22.
The two delegations discussed measures aimed at increasing the movement of transit vehicles between the countries and improving commercial connectivity.
According to the report, the sides also agreed to work on easier visa issuance for drivers and traders, a recurring practical issue in cross-border commerce.
The planned joint commission is intended to provide a formal mechanism for handling transport-related problems and coordinating future steps.
The agreement is important for Afghanistan's broader effort to strengthen trade links with Central Asia and diversify overland routes.
However, the available report does not yet set out a full implementation timetable, detailed quotas or binding traffic targets. The development is therefore an agreement to expand cooperation and establish mechanisms, rather than proof that all proposed measures are already operational.
