"Dear media representatives, I believe that the fear and anxiety existing in some circles related to the Zangazur corridor, which will connect Nakhchivan with the western regions of Azerbaijan, are wide of the mark. In other words, after all these steps related to Karabakh such fear is irrelevant. Azerbaijan continues marching along its path with confident steps. Contributing to the cause of peace, tranquility and stability, this road will open trade and investment opportunities for all countries located along the East-West and Middle Corridor routes that run through the Caspian.
During the 44-day Patriotic War, Azerbaijan liberated its lands from occupation and regained its rights which had been violated for 30 years. Azerbaijan, taking sincere steps and making positive proposals in the negotiations with Armenia, stated that it sees its main goal in achieving a lasting peace, prosperity and stability. I always say that there are no losers in the cause of peace. Our only goal is to build a prosperous future for the region.
The processes of normalization of relations between Azerbaijan and Armenia, Turkiye and Armenia are moving forward, complementing each other. It is necessary to use the opened window of opportunity correctly," Erdogan said.
