A digital permit system for road freight transportation between Georgia and Türkiye has been launched be the Land Transport Agency.
According to the agency, international freight carriers operating between the two countries can obtain and use transport permits entirely in digital format.
As officials note, the system will simplify administrative procedures and reduce the use of paper documents. It will also improve the efficiency of international cargo transportation and speed up the issuance and verification of permits.
According to Bakur Mikadze, Director of the Land Transport Agency, the digital permit system is based on a bilateral principle. It means that both countries use a single electronic platform for the exchange and registration of permit documents. He added that this new mechanism ensures fast and secure data exchange, reduces technical and administrative delays. It also makes administering international road freight transportation more transparent and modern.
As the agency says, the introduction of digital permit mechanism is an important step in the development of international road freight transportation. The successful implementation of the electronic ECMT (European Conference of Ministers of Transport) multilateral permit system is also a crucial point.
According to the agency’s expectations, the transport and logistics sector will develop due to the changes. Also, international trade will become more simple and Georgia’s role as a regional transit hub will strengthen.

As Serbian Minister Nenad Popović told the media following the 13th meeting of the Belarusian-Serbian intergovernmental commission on trade and economic cooperation, Serbia is interested in developing innovation-driven cooperation with Belarusian companies.

However, Popović promised to ensure that as many Belarusian products as possible will appear on the shelves of Serbian stores.
According to the Serbian Minister, cooperation between companies working in innovation, new technologies, digitalization, robotics, and artificial intelligence have the greatest potential for collaboration between the two countries.
Other perspective fields of Belarusian-Serbian cooperation are agriculture and the food industry, particularly the dairy sector.

According to some information, NATO considered the possibility of shooting down his plane. Nevertheless, Lukashenko was not afraid. As Nenad Popović said, the President showed exceptional courage and flew in at that most difficult time for brotherly Serbia to offer his support, to meet with the president, and to speak with ordinary people. He also added that the Serbian people held on thanks to that invaluable support and did not lose that struggle against NATO. Popović said that the Serbian people love Aleksandr Lukashenko, and his name will be written in large letters in the history of the Serbian nation.
The sides signed a number of documents within the framework of the intergovernmental commission. The list includes a protocol of the meeting, an action plan for the development of trade and economic cooperation between Belarus and Serbia for 2026-2028.
