Iran to transport electric power to Russia through Azerbaijan, not Armenia
Iran and Russia are holding final discussions on transportation of electric power, head of export Committee of Iran
Bagiri noted the electric power will be transported through Azerbaijan in the current situation: “Iran and Russia have been negotiating for long period. According to the negotiations, Russia will transport energy to Iran in summer, Iran to Russia in winter. One of the significant issues is a route. There are two routes: Iran-Armenia-Georgia-Russia and Iran-Azerbaijan-Georgia-Russia. Basing on perspectives of cooperation between Azerbaijan and Iran, the transportation will be carried through Azerbaijan, not Armenia”.
