Armenia should stop evading the opening of the Zangezur corridor. This is how the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry commented on Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan's proposal for three transport connection options to Nakhchivan.

"Armenia should cease fake pretexts to evade from its commitments under Trilateral Statement of Nov 2020 to link auto/railroads through Zangazur corridor. To suggest 3 unrealistic options of check points for connectivity ignoring 20 months-long discussions is not a good policy," the official Twitter account of the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry noted.

Earlier, Pashinyan said the Armenian government's decision to establish three checkpoints on the Armenian-Azerbaijani border to ensure communication between eastern Azerbaijan and Nakhchivan has been published for months. "Government of Armenia is waiting for positive reaction from Azerbaijan," he wrote on Twitter.
