According to him, two Tajik companies want to fly to Beijing, Seoul and Guangzhou. Any country can join Open Skies project without hindrance.
Chairman of the Public Council of the Ministry of Transport and Roads Talant Sadakbaev noted that before adoption of this project, one should think about logistics, expand the airport, build a runway.
