The Republic of Armenia is ready to fully ensure the safety of traffic of goods, vehicles and people through its territory, Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said at the regular session of the Eurasian Intergovernmental Council held in Yerevan.
“All statements claiming that Armenia has allegedly agreed somewhere, in some document, that third countries should ensure the security of communications in its territory, are simply a distortion of reality. I would like to note that the same applies to some comments that Armenia has somehow, at some point, agreed to limit its sovereignty in the matter of regional communications. Such a thing has never happened, and this is also an obvious distortion of reality. Armenia’s obligation is clear: to guarantee the safety of cargo, vehicles and people on its territory, and we guarantee it,” PM Pashinyan stated.
He emphasized the relevance of implementing an effective transport and logistics policy for Armenia. Speaking about the Crossroads of Peace project, PM Pashinyan said: “The goal of the project is to create the most favorable conditions for the development of trade and economic relations between all interested states, as well as to significantly increase the logistics potential of the region, based on the principles of full respect for the sovereignty and jurisdiction of countries, equality and reciprocity.”
