New Asia-Europe route: the super canal project from China to the Mediterranean Sea

China and 20 countries are collaborating to build a new Grand Canal, creating a new Asia-Europe route. This project aims to provide a direct link from China’s Xinjiang region to the Mediterranean Sea, altering the global shipping pattern. The plan includes the Trans-Caspian International Transport Corridor, which passes through multiple countries, bypassing Russia. By utilizing the Caspian Sea, Azerbaijan, and Georgia, goods can be transported from Xinjiang to Europe more efficiently. Additionally, there is a possibility of constructing a canal across Kazakhstan, connecting Xinjiang directly to the Mediterranean Sea via inland seas and lakes. This ambitious project has the potential to revolutionize trade routes and provide significant benefits to China and Kazakhstan.
