Ilham Aliyev: "We will start construction of a railway from Horadiz to the Armenian border in the coming days"

At present, we attach great importance to the formation of the corridor of Azerbaijan, Armenia and Turkey, and initial instructions have been given. In the coming days, we will begin construction of a railway from Horadiz to Zangilan, to the Armenian border, and a feasibility study is being prepared. The statement came from President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev while receiving a delegation led by Turkish Defense Minister Hulusi Akar. "In a short period of time, the road from Horadiz to Zangilan was temporarily built.
I went that way myself, you can go comfortably and at high speed. I think that the construction of the railway will take a maximum of 2 years. However, our opinion is that we should not wait for this date, and can be transported by rail to Horadiz and then by trucks. This is already an important issue on our agenda.
I think and I am sure that we can already send and receive the first cargo from Azerbaijan to Turkey from Armenia and Nakhchivan. Thus, the opening of the Nakhchivan corridor, which is an important part of the statement signed on November 10, will be carried out, "the President said.
