BAKU, Azerbaijan, April 19. One of the issues that needs to be clarified with the Armenian side is the issue of communications with Azerbaijan and the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic, President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev said receiving a delegation led by European Union Special Representative for the South Caucasus and the crisis in Georgia Toivo Klaar, Trend reports.
" I mean both railway and highway. As for the railway, I informed President Michel that we have built more than 60 kilometers of the railway in Azerbaijan and will complete the construction next year. Unfortunately, they have not yet started working on the feasibility study in Armenia, which indicates that the process can be delayed.
As for the highway, Azerbaijan is actively building it, and most of the road has already been built. We also hope that the highway will reach the Armenian border by the end of next year. Unfortunately, the Armenian prime minister did not specify the geographical coordinates during the meeting in Brussels. I raised this issue in a video conference on 4 February, but there was no answer. On 6 April, I asked for the geographical coordinates of the road again, but there was still no answer. I do hope we will get it soon," the head of state said.
