Azerbaijan-Armenia peace plan hinges on narrow strip of land along Iran border

1 comment

1. A peace agreement between Armenia and Azerbaijan depends heavily on whether Azerbaijan can gain access to a narrow strip of Armenian land along the Iranian border that would connect its main territory to the Nakhchivan exclave. This land corridor is key to regional transit and trade, but its implementation involves sensitive questions of sovereignty and access. The deal, which U.S. leadership helped broker, aims to reduce longstanding tensions following renewed conflict in the Nagorno-Karabakh region, but its success hinges on navigating competing interests from Armenia, Azerbaijan, Iran and other regional powers.
