The continued transit reflects growing practical cooperation and the easing of transport restrictions between the two neighbouring countries amid ongoing efforts to normalise relations.
President Ilham Aliyev lifted lift restrictions on goods transiting through Azerbaijan to Armenia last October. The limitations had been in place during the period of Armenian occupation of Azerbaijani territories.
