Bajgiran passenger terminal reopened on Monday after a three-year shutdown, according to a local official.
Ja’far Shahamat, the director of Road Maintenance and Transportation Department of Iran’s northeastern Khorasan Razavi Province, said that the reopening of the terminal took place after an agreement between Tehran and Ashgabat to provide services to the passengers at the joint borer as they did in the pre-pandemic era.
As a result of the agreement, Turkmenistan fully reopened its border to Iranian passengers.
Shortly after the global outbreak of the coronavirus three years ago, Ashgabat one-sidedly closed Bajgiran passenger terminal operating on its joint border with Iran.
