Questions of the geography of transit communications in the countries of the EAEU
The dynamics of the transit of the countries of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) is analyzed taking into account the changing geopolitical and geo-economic position. Over the years of independence, new transport communications have been built in Belarus, Kazakhstan and Russia, both to reduce transit dependence on neighbors, and to increase the attractiveness of transit transport. In recent years, the importance of the Eurasian transport corridors for transcontinental transit has been growing rapidly, ensuring faster delivery of goods between the EU and APR countries. For this purpose, projects are being implemented to develop high-speed rail freight, create modern logistics, and include countries to global and regional transport and logistics chains. Demand of the People's Republic of China to the Eurasian transit stimulates the integration of transport of the countries of the EAEU, improves the logistics of mutual trade and economic relations. Together, this creates the prerequisites for the formation of the Eurasian transport partnership, which can be an step in the direction of creating a «Greater Eurasia».
