AP Møller Capital подписала соглашение о приобретении 100% акций сингапурской Portek International у Mitsui & Co. Portek управляет долями в семи портовых терминалах в Алжире, Габоне, Индонезии, Латвии, Мальте и Вьетнаме и занимается портовым инжинирингом.
Сделка касается оператора фидерных терминалов, чьи объекты расположены вне Среднего коридора: в Алжире, Габоне, Индонезии, Латвии, Мальте и Вьетнаме. Прямой связи с маршрутом Китай–Казахстан–Каспий–Кавказ–Европа в тексте нет.
Казахстан и Азербайджан запустили 380-километровую волоконно-оптическую линию связи через Каспийское море. Одновременно подписано соглашение о развитии Транскаспийского международного транспортного маршрута, включающее цифровизацию перевозок и упрощение таможенных процедур.
Запущена трансконтинентальная цифровая линия через Каспий, связывающая Центральную Азию и Китай с Европой, которая дополняет развитие Среднего коридора. Подписанное соглашение предусматривает скоординированное расширение инфраструктуры, устранение узких мест на железнодорожных, автомобильных и портовых участках, сквозное отслеживание грузов и упрощение административных, пограничных и таможенных процедур.
На седьмом саммите CICA в Баку 15 октября Токаев предложил расширить повестку организации, включив искусственный интеллект, превентивную дипломатию, водное сотрудничество и региональную транспортную связанность.

Новость касается политической повестки CICA, а не грузоперевозок напрямую. Для Среднего коридора значимы упоминание региональной транспортной связанности и запуск проекта трансказпийской линии связи с Азербайджаном, но сроков, тарифов или пропускной способности в тексте не указано.
