IRAN TO LAUNCH RAILROAD BETWEEN AZERBAIJAN, ARMENIA
13:01 * 25.03.14
Iran is said to be mulling plans for launching a transit railroad
between Azerbaijan and Armenia.
Akber Turkan, a coordinator for the Iranian Free Zones and Special
Economic Areas, has described the idea as an opportunity to use the
regional transit potentials.
"If the railway opens, development will gain an essential speed in the
three countries' border areas, as well as in the entire region. The
Armenian-Azerbaijani war [over Nagorno-Karabakh] has essentially impact
on the economic development of Jugha. The railroad between Azerbaijan
and Armenia has serious potentials as a corridor to the Black Sea,
Russia and Europe," he was quoted as saying.
Mr Turkan added that the Islamic Republic considers a political
solution to regional conflicts absolutely possivle. "Smoothing over
the disagreements between countries will contribute to the entire
region's development," he said.
