Abstract

From the 80s of the 20th century until today, Iran is under sanctions imposed by the United States, which does not allow the country to develop international economic ties with American and European countries and enter the world market. In an attempt to counterbalance and avoid domestic economic collapse in the face of imposed sanctions, Iran made a decision and since the last decades of the 20th century began to engage in a higher level of cooperation with regional countries, which was reflected in the policy of connecting its railway network with neighboring and other regional countries, most famously is called "railway policy". Iran also wants to have a second, alternative option in addition to having a railway connection with any country, because that road may cease to be operational for various reasons, as a result of which the countries will lose this vital path between them. In order to prevent this, Iran wants to have alternative versions of all its interstate railways with its projects, which mainly operate or are being designed through the territory of other states.
