On May 29, during the solemn closure of the world-famous road experiment, the Russians announced a new agreement with China. Indeed, the agreement was signed as early as during the annual Summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, on June 7th in Qingdao (China). The ministries of transport of both countries have signed an agreement on the abolition of barriers (currently carriers of both countries can carry out transport only within border areas) and open their territories for the international road transport.
