Baku: 'We also can be proud of our achievements in connecting the continents. By investing in railroad and highway infrastructure, we are opening new corridors for transportation,' President Ilham Aliyev said during his speech at the official opening ceremony of Baku Energy Week.

According to Azerbaijan State News Agency, the president emphasized the successful operation of the East-West Corridor. He announced that the Zangezur Corridor, which is set to be an extension of the East-West Corridor, will certainly be built. This development is based on a document signed at the White House on August 8, 2025, involving the President of the United States, the Prime Minister of Armenia, and himself.
