The Iran-Azerbaijan railway project does not eliminate the interest
in the Iran-Armenia project, Russian Railways First Vice-President
Alexander Misharin told Armenian News-NEWS.am.

As per Misharin, the Iran-Armenia railway project is within the
framework of the development concept for the North-South Transport
Corridor.

Even after when the Iran-Azerbaijan railway construction is completed,
alternative routes will be required in the North-South direction,
he added.

The Russian Railways official recalled that there is no business
plan for the Iran-Armenia project, and that work is expected here
from the initiating party of this project.

“And based on this, we will decide on participation. But we are ready
with a potential,” Alexander Misharin stated.
