Azerbaijan's Foreign Minister Jeyhun Bayramov stated that the main negotiations on the TRIPP project (Trump Route) are held between the US and Armenia, but its implementation is impossible without Azerbaijan's participation. He said this to journalists on the sidelines of the high-level opening of the 4th Climate Week (CW4) in Baku.
According to the Foreign Minister, American partners regularly inform the Azerbaijani side about the progress of negotiations.
"The main negotiations on TRIPP are held between the US and Armenia, and this is natural. At the same time, American partners regularly inform Azerbaijan, since the implementation of the project is impossible without our country's participation. According to the information provided to us, the process is successfully continuing," Bayramov said.
The Minister reported that earlier the start of the process was expected before the end of the current year, but according to the latest information, it is scheduled for 2027.
"We consider this project very important for Azerbaijan, Armenia, and the entire region, as well as for international partnership," he emphasized.
Bayramov also reported that Azerbaijan has already begun restoring railways in the territory of the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic. According to him, there are international partners interested in participating in this project. At the same time, Azerbaijan is independently taking the necessary steps for its implementation.
