Azerbaijan says that if Armenia does not give way, we will go through the territory of Iran. We are not against absolutely, let alone completely, Azerbaijan-Iran cooperation, including in the transport sector. We cannot oppose it in any way, express ourselves negatively. Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan stated this during a press conference.
“We are saying something different, we are saying that in fact, that passage is acceptable, right, through the territory of the Islamic Republic of Iran. Azerbaijan does not consider it an obstacle. In other words, does Azerbaijan consider that it is passing through the territory of Iran through an obstacle? It does not consider it, right? Otherwise, it would not have passed.
We are saying that we are ready for the same conditions that the Islamic Republic of Iran is offering, on the same conditions. On the same conditions.
Moreover, taking into account that in this case Armenia also needs passages, we are also ready for certain simplifications,” he said, noting that the readiness for these simplifications is also mentioned in the Crossroads of Peace project.
