Needs more on Iran point of view

For example I don't understand how it would cut off Iran from Armenia as that route could go by tunnel or bridge over or under such a corridor. Chidgk1 (talk) 16:23, 29 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Because to date there has been no official mention of a tunnel or bridge? 88.212.181.21 (talk) 20:29, 21 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Whatever the means of bypass, IR's point of view is quite simple - unhindered access between AZ and Nakhchivan via AM would rob it of the leverage it currently holds over AZ, ie AZ has no choice but to use Iranian territory for access.

Of course, if left with no choice IR would prefer a form of transport which does not run the risk of being used by TR/AZ as a means of blocking trade between AM and IR, but it opposes unhindered access of any kind.

I'm surprised there's no mention of Iran in this article. They are a focal point in this ongoing problem. Zang means bell in Persian and Zur means strength. Why does the article not mention the root of the words. It is because the article wants to completely ignore the origins of the territory. 88.212.181.21 (talk) 20:33, 21 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
