China to Start Construction on Major Railway Project to Enhance Ties with Central Asia

Credited from: VOANEWS

  • China's new railway project, the China-Kyrgyzstan-Uzbekistan railway (CKU), will connect Kashgar City in Xinjiang to Andijan in Uzbekistan, covering over 400 kilometers.
  • The project, delayed for over 20 years due to financing issues and regional political factors, is now progressing thanks to regime changes and geopolitical shifts.
  • Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan's shifting attitudes toward the project have been influenced by the Ukraine war, prompting search for new trade routes.
  • Chinese analysts believe CKU will enhance cooperation between Asia and Europe, serving as a vital transport route under China's Belt and Road Initiative.
  • The railway project faces challenges, such as technical difficulties and potential economic risks for Kyrgyzstan due to increasing debt to China.
