News - Klaar on Armenia’s ‘Crossroads of Peace’ project: We absolutely share PM Pashinyan's vision

I think the vision of Prime Minister Pashinyan of road and railway connections uniting countries is something we absolutely share. Toivo Klaar, the European Union (EU) Special Representative for the South Caucasus and the Crisis in Georgia, stated this in an interview to Armenpress—and referring to the "Crossroads of Peace" project proposed by the Armenian authorities. "We absolutely share that vision of an open South Caucasus where railway and road connections are open, and countries are reconnected in a way that they were at the end of the Soviet period and even more so because also the road and railway connections across  to Türkiye [(Turkey)], and naturally Iran, which is already the case, but also to Türkiye, should also be open. “That is how we see the future, absolutely, our vision of a South Caucasus at peace is one where these transport connections are all open again and there is trade, there is people travelling across the various frontiers," Klaar said.
