ArmInfo.There is no consensus yet on the issue of unblocking the railway. Deputy Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia Mher Grigoryan told journalists on October 21.
According to him, there is no consensus on this issue in the working groups of the Republic of Armenia, the Russian Federation and the Republic of Azerbaijan. For this reason, meetings of the working groups on unblocking the region's transport and economic communications are not being held.
"You know that there are fundamental issues on which there should be consensus. Until there is consensus, there is no point in discussing details," the Deputy Prime Minister said.
The trilateral working group was created in 2021 by the decision of the leaders of Armenia, Russia and Azerbaijan, co-chaired by the deputy prime ministers of the three countries. In June 2023, at the 12th meeting of the group, a common understanding was agreed on the restoration and organization of railway communication between Armenia and Azerbaijan. The parties almost reached a comprehensive balanced agreement, but subsequently the process stalled.
