An agreement on maritime affairs will be signed between Iran and Azerbaijan in the near future, Executive Director of the Khazar Shipping Company Davood Tafti said.
According to him, the agreement will be mainly on transit in the East-West Corridor.
"The cargo transported from Europe to Asia will be transported to Iranian ports via Azerbaijani ports. It will be transported from Iranian ports to eastern countries, including Afghanistan and Pakistan," Trend cited him as saying.
Tafti noted that through its representative office in South Korea, the Khazar Shipping Company has created certain infrastructures to transport cargo directly from South Korea to the southern ports of Iran and from there to Azerbaijan by railways or the northern ports.
