He stressed that commercial goods from Iran will be delivered to Turkmenistan through the corresponding crossing. As part of the decision made by both parties, the exported goods will enter Turkmenistan by lorries and the consignments will be transported to the final destinations by Turkmen trucks at the Turkmen customs.
The official noted that the border crossing Inche Borron was closed due to the outbreak of coronavirus infection. He added that the Bajgiran checkpoint in Khorasan-Razavi province has not been reopened since March last year.
It should be added that earlier Ashgabat allowed to open the Sarakhs and Lotfabad checkpoints. The terminal now have special disinfection tunnels for trucks.
