In addition, the itineraries used by the export convoys are no longer limited to the infamous “golden route” through Pakistan and Iran, but have multiplied, employing exit points in former Soviet Republics such as Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, and Turkmenistan. This is helping to promote further instability in already volatile political contexts.
除此之外，出口车队使用的路线也不再局限于途径巴基斯坦和伊朗、臭名昭著的“黄金通道”，而是采用前苏联共和国如塔吉克斯坦、乌兹别克斯坦以及土库曼斯坦等出口点。这就为该地区早已动荡不安的政局增添了进一步的不稳定因素。
