Russia has not received any requests from Armenia or Azerbaijan regarding participation in the "Trump route" project, but the parties are aware of Russia's readiness. This was stated by Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, TASS reports.

"We have not received any requests regarding participation in this project, the transport route named after Donald Trump. However, all interested parties are aware of our readiness and capabilities," the Minister noted.

"We have welcomed — and have done so repeatedly through the President and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs — the process of normalization of relations between Armenia and Azerbaijan. We welcomed the agreement that was concluded in Washington. We are ready to participate in infrastructure projects; we have stated this more than once. Russian Railways holds a concession and operates within the framework of the South Caucasus Railway. All of this infrastructure is familiar to us and is technologically maintained by us," Lavrov said.
