Turkey is planning a $150 billion 'Development Road' project to build an overland route connecting Iraq's Al Faw port to Turkey and Europe. The project, announced by Turkey's Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure Abdul Kadir Uraloğlu, includes railway and highway infrastructure, as well as energy transmission lines and communication networks. The goal is to start construction this year and secure funding. The 1,200-kilometer corridor aims to link Iraq's Grand Faw Port to Turkey via railways and highways, with onward connections to European markets. Iraq, Qatar, and the UAE are already involved in the project, which is planned to take three to five years.
