Iran has clear positions regarding South Caucasus and transit corridors, says Iran FM spox

Iran has clear positions regarding the situation in the South Caucasus region and transit corridors, Iran’s Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Nasser Kanaani said in response to Turkiye’s statement on the so-called Zangezur Corridor.

“We are making a lot of efforts to establish peace, stability, and security in the regional countries. We emphasize that developing transit cooperation cannot be a basis for geopolitical changes and violation of the territorial integrity and national sovereignty of countries,” IRNA quoted Kanaani as saying.

Earlier, Turkish Minister of Transport and Infrastructure Abulkadir Uraloğlu announced that Turkiye expects to complete what he described as the “Zangezur Corridor” project by 2029.
