“During our official visit to Iran, we met with the head of the country’s railway administration, Jabbar Ali Zakeri Sardrudi. The main topic of our discussions was the construction of a railway line that will provide a direct land connection between the East Zangazur Economic Region and the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic via Iranian territory. In addition, we addressed the strengthening of cooperation on the North-South corridor and discussed the steps taken by Azerbaijan Railways CJSC to develop both routes, as well as our future plans,” wrote R.
