Aliyev in Davos: Regarding allowing transit from Armenia to Russia

“We have received a request from the Armenian side regarding allowing transit from Armenia to Russia,” Azerbaijani media reported, as President Ilham Aliyev stated at a panel session held in Davos within the framework of the World Economic Forum.

“We have, in fact, unilaterally opened the corridors for Armenia. Yes, currently transportation is carried out through Georgia. However, one day transit will take place directly from Armenia through Azerbaijan, and this day is not far off,” the Azerbaijani President noted.

According to Aliyev, the priority for Azerbaijan is the region and its immediate neighbors.

"I am glad that over the years of independence we have managed to establish very close working relations with all our neighbors, of course, except for Armenia - for well-known reasons. After the establishment of de facto peace, we also began economic cooperation and export operations," Ilham Aliyev noted.
