Makhachkala, November 1, 2018. According to the Head of Dagestan, Vladimir Vasilyev, there are no obstacles for establishing regular railway service on this route. Speaking at the republican TV, the republican governor noted the enormous opportunities in the region not involved so far. “We will now run the regular railway communication with Baku” - Vasilyev is quoted saying.

Vladimir Vasilyev also noted that the route would become comfortable and convenient. In his opinion, the regular railway connection between both cities will develop the economy of the two republics and work in the interests of the people.
For the first time, the initiative to launch the direct railway link between the two cities was discussed in April 2018 at the meeting of Dagestan authorities with the leadership of Russian Railways Company following a working trip across the North Caucasian Railway to Derbent.

In the near future, it is planned to open direct flights between Makhachkala and Baku. The agreements have been concluded during the IX Russian-Azerbaijani Interregional Forum, held in the Azerbaijani capital at the end of September 2018.
