Russia and Iran have recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to construct a rail link that will bolster the International North-South Transport Corridor (INSTC).
It helps to connect Russian ports on the Baltic Sea with Iranian ports in the Indian Ocean and the Gulf.
It facilitates the expansion of trade between India and Russia.
This rail link holds immense potential in enhancing connectivity and promoting economic cooperation.
The new connection will save four days off that traveling time.
