“The Zangezur Corridor is extremely important for Azerbaijan,” Richard Hoagland, former US Co-chair of the OSCE Minsk Group, told AZERTAC.
“The Corridor links the mainland recognized by the United Nations with its borders of Azerbaijan, with its exclave Nakhchivan, and to reach Nakhchivan, you have to travel through southern Armenia. The negotiations that are taking place right now between Yerevan and Baku are working on this. The recent initialing of the new steps towards peace here in Washington, in the White House, recognized the importance of the Zangezur Corridor and called it now the TRIPP Corridor. What that means is the United States will participate in the implementation of the Zangezur corridor, and in addition to gaining economic benefits from this process, it will also consider contributing to keeping things peaceful.
