The Prime Minister of Armenia, Nikol Pashinyan, thanked the President of Azerbaijan, Ilham Aliyev, for lifting all restrictions on the transit of Azerbaijani cargo to Armenia during his speech at the 5th Jubilee Silk Road Forum held in Tbilisi, APA reports.

He also thanked Prime Minister Ali Asadov.

Note that yesterday, during a press statement in Astana with Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, President Ilham Aliyev stated that Azerbaijan has lifted all restrictions on cargo transit to Armenia that had been in place since the occupation.

“Azerbaijan has lifted all restrictions on the transit of goods to Armenia that had been in place since the occupation. I should also note that the first such transit shipment was a consignment of Kazakh grain to Armenia. I believe this is a clear indication that peace between Azerbaijan and Armenia exists not only on paper but also in practice,” the President emphasized.
