Aliyev suggests creating corridor between Nakhchivan, western Azerbaijan

Azerbaijan’s President Ilham Aliyev has proposed the creation of a corridor connecting Nakhchivan with the western part of the country, RIA Novosti reported.

The Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic belongs to Azerbaijan, but is divided from the latter by the territory of Armenia.

Also, Aliyev wants to create a new Lachin corridor. The current corridor connects Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh [(Artsakh)], and, among other cities, passes through Lachin, too. The Azerbaijani leader wants Lachin to pass under the control of Baku and the corridor to pass through other territories.
