Iranian trucks transporting goods to Georgia through Turkey currently prefer the route through Armenia, although the roads are more inconvenient because of the mountainous relief, Akunq.net reports, quoting its sources.
The reason is that the Iranian trucks have been burnt by unknown armed groupings in Turkey over the past 4-5 months.
The source reports, quoting Iranian drivers, that 40-50 trucks have been burnt in Turkey over the past months. They are not certain, however, who stands behind this – state officials or PKK militants.
