Putin and Trump may discuss control over the Zangezur corridor -  First Deputy Chairman of State Duma Committee

ArmInfo. Russian President Vladimir Putin and US leader Donald Trump may discuss the issue of control over the Zangezur Corridor, a transport route between the  territories of Armenia and Azerbaijan, during their meeting in  Alaska. This opinion was expressed to TASS by the first deputy  chairman of the State Duma Committee on CIS Affairs, Eurasian  Integration and Relations with Compatriots Viktor Vodolatsky.

"The issue of control over the Zangezur Corridor will also be  considered at a bilateral meeting of the presidents of the Russian  Federation and the US," the agency's source said.

On August 8, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and Azerbaijani  President Ilham Aliyev signed a joint seven-point   in Washington. It provides for a joint appeal to the Organization for  Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) to terminate the OSCE Minsk  process and related structures, as well as the creation of a  transport corridor through Armenian territory that will connect  Azerbaijan with its Nakhichevan exclave. The TRIPP project (Trump  Route for International Peace and Prosperity, a 42-km road in  southern Armenia that will hand over control of the road to the  United States for 99 years), according to experts, is capable of  significantly changing the geopolitical situation in the South  Caucasus.
