ArmInfo. Iran-Armenia and Iran-Azerbaijan railroad projects are not
rivals to each other, Minister of Roads and Transportation of Iran
Hamid Behbahani said during a press-conference in Yerevan today.
He said that Iran did not consider those projects as rivals. Each
country should have alternative roads and one should not put all eggs
in one basket.
To note, Iran-Armenia and Iran-Azerbaijan railroads both give access to
the Persian Gulf. The latter project envisages transit of Russian
cargos via the territory of Azerbaijan while Armenia has no such
opportunities because of the Georgian-Russian confrontation.
