Interview with Philip Mikos - TRACECA Investment Forum seeks to turn transport blueprints into real transport links

Talking about the Neighbourhood

TRACECA (Transport Corridor Europe Caucasus Asia) is a strange animal, points out Philip Mikos, Head of Unit of Regional Programmes Neighbourhood East at the European Commission in an interview with the EU Neighbourhood Info Centre. In a nutshell, it is an EU programme and also an international multilateral agreement of 12 countries, both aiming to develop a regional network of transport routes stretching from China all the way to Europe, dubbed ‘the new Silk Road’. The TRACECA programme supports partner countries in their efforts to adopt modern standards and practices in the transport sector. It also helps attract investment into transport infrastructure, which is the main aim of the TRACECA Investment Forum, says Philip Mikos.
