First commercial cargo from Azerbaijan arrives in Armenia

Armenian Economy Minister Gevorg Papoyan said that the first shipment of Azerbaijani fuel has crossed into Armenia via Georgia on Friday.

According to him, a train of 22 wagons "carrying 1,300 tons of Azerbaijani-origin A95 gasoline" has crossed the border into Armenia with neighboring Georgia through the railway station in the town of Ayrum.

Earlier, AI-95 fuel produced at the Baku Oil Refinery loaded into 22 railway wagons was dispatched from a terminal in Baku in accordance with agreements reached in late November.

Georgia will conduct the transit of fuel from Azerbaijan to Armenia through Georgian territory free of charge this time.
