Pashinyan Allows for Reciprocal Arms Transfers via the Zangezur Corridor

Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan commented on the possibility of using the transport corridor connecting Azerbaijan with Nakhichevan (the "Trump Route") for arms transportation. He stated that such a scenario is possible, but only with reciprocity.

"Regarding the 'Trump Route,' I must return to one of the five principles—the principle of reciprocity. If this condition applies to Armenia, it will apply to Azerbaijan," Pashinyan emphasized.

As a reminder, in August, the presidents of Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire memorandum, which specifically emphasized the creation of the Zangezur Corridor, dubbed the "Trump Route for Peace and Prosperity," and designed to connect the mainland of Azerbaijan with the Nakhichevan Autonomous Region. However, the details of this route's operation remain unclear.

Armenian officials categorically deny the use of the term "corridor" and insist that no extraterritorial regime is involved. Bilateral memoranda between the US and Armenia do not specify the functional characteristics of the road, leaving room for various interpretations.
