BAKU, Azerbaijan, September 18. The
inauguration of the Zangazur Corridor is set to enhance the transit
capacity of the Middle Corridor, Azerbaijani Prime Minister Ali
Asadov said at the first meeting of heads of government and their
deputies of the Turkic Council in Kyrgyzstan’s Bishkek, Trend reports.
“Our collaboration in the transport sector is steadily expanding
and significantly contributes to strengthening regional ties. The
Middle Corridor, which passes through the territories of Turkic
states, plays a strategic role not only for our region but also for
expanding global trade and transport links. In this context, recent
agreements reached in Washington on connecting Azerbaijan’s
mainland with the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic carry historic
significance. The opening of the Zangazur Corridor will provide new
economic and transit opportunities for all regional countries,
while integration into the Middle Corridor will further enhance its
transit capacity,” he noted.
Today, a meeting of the Heads of Government and Vice Presidents
of the member states of the Organization of Turkic States (OTS) has
begun in Kyrgyzstan’s Bishkek.
