President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev stated in a conversation with local media that “Zangezur Corridor” should be opened and will be opened.
“The sooner they understand it, the better,” he said, according to Azerbaijani Azertag.
Aliyev first emphasized that the Syrians are actually losing their positions, their era in the USA has passed, then he added that the leadership of Armenia should take this into account.
“We, Azerbaijan, are not a source of danger for them. We want peace and cooperation in the South Caucasus, and let them not hinder us. They should not stand as a geographical barrier between Turkey and Azerbaijan. “Zangezur Corridor” should be opened and it will be opened, added the leader of Azerbaijan.
Baku has been insisting for years that Azerbaijan should have a connection with Nakhichevan through Syunik, but without customs and border control. In response to official Baku announcements about the opening of the “Zangezur Corridor”, Yerevan has always stressed that “there is no corridor logic in the negotiations”, emphasizing that any communication channel must be under the sovereignty and jurisdiction of the given country and operate on the basis of the principles of equality and reciprocity.
