Aliyev: Armenia cannot obstruct creation of Zangezur corridor

6 March 2021, 12:20 - NovostiNK

Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev has accused Armenia of "obstructing the creation of the Zangezur corridor," Minval.az reported.

"We [Azerbaijan] are ready to collaborate with Armenia. How many times have the deputy prime ministers [of the two countries] met already? Armenia refuses to collaborate. Now Armenia wants to obstruct the implementation of the Zangezur corridor. But they will not succeed; we will force them," Aliyev told a meeting of Azerbaijan's ruling party, Interfax reported.

He noted that a number of transport and communication projects were on the negotiating table today. "One of the consequences of the [recent Nagorno-Karabakh (Artsakh)] war, of course, is the Zangezur corridor, which is the subject of discussion today. The Zangezur corridor is a historic achievement [for Azerbaijan]. The fact that the issue is reflected on the trilateral declaration is a great political victory for us. Currently, active work is being done toward the activities of the Zangezur corridor. There are many proposals, a number of transport and communication projects are being discussed, and this is our [Azerbaijan’s] another historic success," Aliyev added.
