3.2 International accessibility: Sustainable access to markets!
International transport links are a prerequisite for engaging in global
trade chains. Participation in global logistic supply chains is essential for
attracting foreign investments, firms and human capital. Strategic
international links are therefore important for the economic development
of a region. Foreign trade is especially important for small economies.
Landlocked countries are disadvantaged as they rely on hinterland
connections and border crossings have a disproportionate impact on trade
to and from landlocked countries. Especially emerging economies that are
landlocked need special attention, so that their geographical position is
constraint for economic development.
