Persian Gulf—Black Sea corridor

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Persian Gulf—Black Sea corridor is a transport and transit corridor project proposed and created by Iran.[1] The corridor project starts from the Persian Gulf and southern Iran, heads north across the country, and then continues to Armenia,[2] from where it reaches the Georgian ports of Poti and Batumi in the Black Sea. From there, Ro-Ro ships cross the Black Sea to the Bulgarian ports of Burgas and Varna, after which the goods are again sent by road to Greece and on to the European Union.[3]
