Analysts assess the development prospects of the Middle Corridor
Military conflicts in Iran and Ukraine have increased the importance of the Trans-Caspian International Transport Corridor as an alternative route from Asia to Europe. Amid disruptions on traditional routes, the Middle Corridor's attractiveness is growing.

In October 2025, Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev announced the lifting of all restrictions on cargo transit to Armenia. Armenian authorities considered this an important step in opening regional communications. In early November 2025, a cargo of Russian grain arrived in Armenia via Azerbaijan for the first time since the 1990s. The Armenian government noted that this fulfilled one of the agreements reached in the United States, which contributed to strengthening peace between Yerevan and Baku.

On August 8, 2025, Ilham Aliyev and Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan signed a declaration on the cessation of hostilities at a meeting in Washington. US President Donald Trump stated that the key issue that had prevented the signing of a peace agreement between Armenia and Azerbaijan has been resolved: the issue of the Zangezur Corridor. The "Caucasian Knot" has prepared a report "Trump Route" (TRIPP): Transport Corridor through Armenia".

On February 4, Aliyev and Pashinyan discussed the economic cooperation they had initiated at a meeting in the UAE and agreed to explore opportunities to expand trade. Although mutually beneficial, trade and economic cooperation between Azerbaijan and Armenia will be limited in the near future, analysts in Baku noted.
