BAKU, Azerbaijan, January 5. There must be a
railway that can also connect Nakhchivan with Türkiye, and all
these projects, of course, should be carried out in a coordinated
fashion, President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev said in an interview
with local television channels on January 5, Trend reports.
Emphasizing that all roads can be implemented faster on the
territory of Azerbaijan, the head of state noted that there are no
more problems with the Zangezur Corridor in the territory of the
country.
President Ilham Aliyev also said that, on Azerbaijan’s
initiative, a bridge over the Araz is being constructed in the
Aghband settlement: “Currently, to get from the main part of
Azerbaijan to Nakhchivan, a long road must be covered from
Bilasuvar. It will now be only 45–50 kilometers from the territory
of Iran to Nakhchivan. Thus, there will be two connections between
the main part of Azerbaijan and Nakhchivan, one through Armenia and
one through Iran. We will actually unite Nakhchivan, East Zangezur
and Garabagh into one region.”
