"Today, the Middle Corridor, one of its branches, which goes across the Caspian from Asia, goes from Azerbaijan to Georgia, to Türkiye, and then to Europe, and also to Georgian seaports. This is the only way to connect Asia with Europe through Azerbaijan. So, the Zangezur Corridor, or TRIPP, will provide an alternative route," said Ilham Aliyev, President of the Republic of Azerbaijan in his interview with Al Arabiya TV channel, APA reports.
"The second corridor will go through the territory of Armenia, and this is a benefit to Armenia. I was trying to deliver this message to my Armenian colleague: they will eventually become a transit country. Every country, if it has potential, tries to become a transit country. We, for instance, want to be a transit country. We want corridors to cross Azerbaijan from east to west and north to south. Armenia, because of occupation, was deprived from that there is no transit going across the country. So with the Zangezur Corridor, Armenia will get transit fees from transportation. Taking into account that the volumes of cargo from Asia to Europe through Azerbaijan are growing year by year, I'm sure that the Zangezur Corridor will be an important transportation link connecting the continents," President Ilham Aliyev noted.
