Azerbaijan has been negotiating with Turkey to build a railway branch
from the Baku-Tbilisi-Kars main.
The branch will run from the Turkish city of Igdyr on to the
Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic (NAR), Azerbaijani President Ilham
Aliyev said yesterday, during the opening of a monument to Azerbaijan
People's Republic 1918-1920.
Aliyev said the project will establish a railway communication
between Baku and Nakhchivan and bring the republic out of a blockade,
which it has been in since 1988 due to the Armenian- Azerbaijani
conflict.
The packet of agreements related to Baku-Tbilisi-Kars construction
was signed on April 8, 2007 in Tbilisi. During the project it is
planned to build a new 105 km long railway (76 km within Turkey and
29 km within Georgia).-0-
