In accordance with the document, the junction point is located in the northern part, on the saline land of “Shorkazakly”.

Earlier, the deputy of “Majilis Karaken Kuralay” noted that the name “Shorkazakly” has Uzbek roots, in Turkmenistan it is called “Kazaklysor”, but the Kazakh side does not name this terrain at all. The deputy wondered if the area would have a common name in three countries.
