“After the second Karabakh war, we work on a new corridor – a Zangezur corridor. In the international plane, this name has already been identified as a Zangezary corridor. It will also provide a new connection between Turkey and Azerbaijan.” AzerTAKH reports, President Ilham Aliyev said this at a meeting with Turkish Transport Minister Adil Karaismailoglu.
“As you know, at the first stage, after the war, Armenia expressed his protest on this issue. However, recently, I reported that the Armenian side is already correctly analyzing issues related to the inevitability of this corridor. As you know, discussions are underway in Three-way format. This issue is discussed within the framework of the Working Group at the level of deputy prime ministers of Azerbaijan, Russia, Armenia, and there are good results.
We gave the start by laying the railway from Goradiz to the border with Armenia on the already liberated lands. I am sure that in the next two years, maybe two and a half years, this railway will be fully commissioned.
Most of the Nakhchivan Railway is in operation, the missing part will also be built, all instructions are given. In Armenia, an important part of the Zangezo Corridor should be built. Thus, a new corridor will be opened, and this connection between Turkey and Azerbaijan will become even more durable, “said the head of state.
