ISTANBUL (AP) — Transport ministers from Turkey, Iraq, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates are meeting in Istanbul to discuss a multibillion-dollar regional transportation project designed to ease the movement of goods from Asia to Europe through Iraq. The $20 billion Development Road Project is designed to facilitate the transport of goods from the Gulf to Europe via the Grand Faw Port in southern Iraq. The port would be linked to Turkey and subsequently to Europe through an extensive network of railways and highways. Turkey’s transportation minister says the meeting Thursday will focus on issues including the financing of the project.
