“Armenpress”According to the report, Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said this while presenting the pre-election program of the ruling “Civil Agreement” party.
“I am sure that we will start the works on the ground already in 2026. According to my calculations, the fastest way would be to put the power transmission lines into operation. This project will also create many jobs, and I hope that we will provide jobs through Armenian citizens, and companies will not have to attract labor from other countries.
Reconstruction of Gyumri-Turkey border and Yeraskh-Nakhijevan border railway sections, we will do this very quickly, within 1-1.5 years,” said Pashinyan.

It is noted that the complete unblocking of the region’s transport infrastructure, including both the implementation of the TRIPP project and the commissioning of the Gyumri-Kars railway, will not only further strengthen peace and cooperation in the region, but will also turn it into an important node of east-west and north-south connectivity, the Crossroads of Peace.
TRIPP is an Armenian-American joint investment project, the agreement on which was reached during the Armenia-Azerbaijan peace summit held in Washington on August 8 with the mediation of US President Donald Trump. TRIPP will also ensure the connection of the main part of Azerbaijan with Nakhichevan.
