With economic development, environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues are becoming increasingly important for many sectors, including transport.

The Eurasian railway route is undergoing a fundamental transformation associated with the replacement of lost transit volumes with cargo moving via the China-EAEU-China route. The reorientation of Russia’s trade and economic relations towards the East provides opportunities for the development of the route in this direction.
