Transport services to provide the trade between Siberia and Western China
The studies and assessments show that it is vital to build a transport infrastructure providing foreign trade contacts between Russia and Western China. The construction and operation of the road connecting Russia and Western China through the Altay Republic and their common border should become the focus of the international integration in this region. Its absence means a millions-US-dollars loss of profit both for Russia and China. From the Russian side, the integration revival is vital, first of all, for Novosibirsk and Kemerovo oblasts, the Altay kray, Altay and Tuva Republics. The unconcerned sides are Moscow and Kasakhstan Republic presently exercising a trade agent role in the trade between Russia and Western China.
