Memorandum on the Black Sea ring road signed

The 7100km-long motorway will go through Istanbul-Samsun-Trabson (Turkey)- Batumi-Poti (Georgia) -Novorossiysk-Rostov-na-Bonu-Taganrog (Russia), Mariopol-Melitopol-Odessa (Ukraine)-Chisinau (Moldova), Bucharest (Rumania)-Khaskovo (Bulgaria)-Edirna-Istanbul (Turkey). International Bank for Reconstruction and Development and Black Sea Trade and Development Bank expressed readiness for financing the project.

Armenian Transportation and Communications Minister Andranik Manukyan suggested at the meeting that the BSECO member states which have no direct connection to the Sea should also get an access to the motorway through a road, APA reports.
