Fuel exports from Azerbaijan to Armenia are continuing, with eight rail wagons carrying 479 tonnes of diesel fuel dispatched as part of the latest shipment between the two South Caucasus neighbours.
The deliveries come as transport links across the region gradually expand following Azerbaijan’s decision last year to lift long-standing restrictions on cargo transit to Armenia. The move has enabled a growing volume of rail-based trade to pass through Azerbaijani territory.
According to official figures, Azerbaijan has so far supplied Armenia with more than 8,500 tonnes of diesel fuel, alongside 979 tonnes of AI-92 petrol and nearly 3,000 tonnes of AI-95 petrol.
The growing trade volumes reflect a broader shift towards increased economic and transport connectivity across the region.
At the same time, Russian cargo shipments destined for Armenia continue to move through Azerbaijan by rail.
Six wagons carrying 402 tonnes of fertiliser are departing from Bilajari railway station in the Absheron region and heading towards Boyuk Kesik railway station near Azerbaijan’s western border with Georgia.
Transit traffic along the route has steadily expanded in recent months as regional rail connectivity gains momentum.
Official data shows that more than 27,000 tonnes of grain, 4,000 tonnes of fertiliser, 133 tonnes of aluminium and 68 tonnes of buckwheat have already been transported from Russia to Armenia via Azerbaijani territory.
