Armenia’s unblocking and its impact on transport

Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan confirmed that Armenia’s unblocking is underway, calling it a major achievement in the country’s regional strategy.

The agreement with Azerbaijan will allow Armenia to access railway routes passing through Azerbaijani territory.

This development resolves the long-disputed link between mainland Azerbaijan and its Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic, but under Armenia’s sovereignty and territorial control.

Pashinyan stressed that there will be no “corridor” with extraterritorial status.

Armenia’s unblocking and economic opportunities

Pashinyan noted that while U.S. President Donald Trump used the term “corridor,” it referred only to a general transport route, like the “North-South Road Corridor” project.

The prime minister assured that Armenia will maintain jurisdiction over all transit infrastructure.

The unblocking process could unlock trade, investment, and logistical integration for Armenia.

For decades, closed borders limited the country’s connectivity, but the new railway links promise stronger economic ties and stability in the South Caucasus.

Armenia’s leadership views these developments as a foundation for peace and cooperation.

Better infrastructure will not only serve domestic needs but also position the country as a strategic transport hub between Europe and Asia.
