The overall assessment level of the NSEC and the EWEC is based on the weakest link of the economic
corridors. It must be noted that logistics corridors do exist but only within the boundary of a country and
not at the NSEC, EWEC or cross-border level. The current status of NSEC and EWEC border crossings
is still based solely on existing physical links as the institutional framework facilitating border crossing
has not been totally implemented. This is why the overall logistics performance of both corridors is only
assessed as transport corridors, as border crossings are the weakest link in integrating both economic
corridors.
