The land route from the main part of Azerbaijan to the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic through the territory of Armenia should be provided with an international control and security mechanism.

Axar.az reports that President Ilham Aliyev said these words during his speech at the international forum on "COP29 and Green Vision for Azerbaijan".

"If for some reason they don't want to have a Russian border security force now, they should say so. But again, they signed it themselves and they have to respect their signature. So, they will lose the opportunity to be a transit country. They have never been a transit country. , I mean as an independent country and they will never be. Because all these assumptions about the peace junction are not realistic. If they think that someone will come and build a railway from Iran to Georgia, they should find someone who may have to spend 5-7 billion US dollars for some reason. However, there is a land connection between Iran and Azerbaijan, and there is a railway connection between Azerbaijan and Georgia. In any case, how to plan their future is up to them," the President said.
