President Ilham Aliyev said the Zangezur Corridor will soon become a vital part of the Trans-Caspian International Transport Route, known as the Middle Corridor, and the North–South Corridor.
Speaking at a “SCO Plus” session in Tianjin, China, Aliyev underlined that the corridor will strengthen peace and multilateral partnership in the region. He added that the route will bring economic and strategic benefits to Azerbaijan’s neighbours to the east, west, north and south of its borders.
The Middle Corridor was launched in 2014 to establish a trade link from China to Europe that bypasses Russia. The route runs through Kazakhstan, the Caspian Sea, Azerbaijan and Georgia, positioning the South Caucasus as a critical transit hub.
By integrating the Zangezur Corridor into this network, Azerbaijan aims to expand its role in Eurasian transport connectivity while promoting stability and cooperation across the wider region.
