Armenia Records Highest Growth in Freight and Passenger Traffic Within the EAEU
During the first half of 2026, member states of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) saw a notable increase in logistics and transportation metrics. According to data released by the Eurasian Economic Commission, Armenia achieved the highest growth rates across these key sectors.
Data from the first six months of 2026 indicates that total passenger traffic within the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU)—an economic bloc comprising several post-Soviet states—grew by 0.5% compared to the previous year. These statistics were recently published by the press service of the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC).
Passenger Traffic Dynamics
According to the EEC, passenger turnover increased across all member nations. The growth rates were distributed as follows:
- Armenia: 7.3% growth,
- Belarus: 7.2% growth,
- Kazakhstan: 5.1% growth,
- Kyrgyzstan: 4.9% growth.
Additionally, according to a report by TipRanks, Corporación América Airports also announced a surge in passenger traffic for July 2026. The company noted that this increase was primarily driven by strong performances in the international market, heavily bolstered by Armenia's particularly positive indicators.
Freight Transportation Volumes
The reporting period also revealed significant positive momentum in the freight transport sector. Armenia emerged as the absolute leader in this category as well, registering a 12.1% increase. Logistics volumes in other member states grew at a more modest pace: Kyrgyzstan recorded a 3.1% increase, Kazakhstan saw 2% growth, and Belarus experienced a 1.5% rise.
