Azerbaijan’s growing rail freight links with China strengthen Middle Corridor
Azerbaijan is strengthening its position as a strategic transport and logistics hub between Asia and Europe as freight traffic from China continues to expand. Azerbaijan Railways (ADY) received 416 block trains from China in January–September 2026, marking a 40% increase compared with the same period last year. This growth highlights the rising importance of the Middle Corridor and creates new opportunities for Azerbaijan to expand its role in international trade.
