Kazakhstan suggests connecting Black and Caspian seas by a ship canal

Kazakhstan’s President Nursultan Nazarbayev has called the leaders of the Eurasian Economic Union to discuss a project of connecting the Black and Caspian seas by a navigable canal.

“It could be a prospective project to build the Eurasia navigable canal that would allow connecting Black and Caspian seas by a waterway,” Nazarbayev announced at a meeting of the Supreme Eurasian Economic Council in an extended format, TASS reports.

Besides, Kazakhstan suggests analyzing opportunities for construction of a high-speed Eurasia road that would connect Europe with Asia via Russia and Kazakhstan.
