Aserbaidschans Präsident Aliyev, China zu besuchen

Since Azerbaijan’s success in its 2020 war with Armenia, China’s interest in the South Caucasus has grown. It hopes to open up a second trading route to Europe via Azerbaijan, southern Armenia, the Azerbaijani exclave of Nakhchivan, and Türkiye. That would complement an existing route via Azerbaijan and Georgia which is part of the Middle Corridor, a land route from China to Europe that bypasses Russia.
