With Iran’s and Iraq’s airspace closed, this narrow corridor over Türkiye, Georgia, Armenia, and Azerbaijan has become the main artery connecting Europe with Asia.

Azerbaijan's desire to join BRICS today is really to bid to be an official part of the INSTC (International North-South Transport Corridor) between India-Iran-Russia. The Azeris are willing to offer a direct rail link between Russia and Iran bypassing Caspian Sea. With a pro-West government in Armenia and no counter bid to join BRICS or integrate their rail network with INSTC, Azerbaijan could see entry in.
Geopolitically, situation is dicey with Azerbaijan considering the shaky relationship with both Iran and India. Azerbaijan would have to work on its goodwill with both Iran and India. However, as long as the Pashinyan government remains in power in Armenia, it is unlikely Armenia will launch a counter bid or join BRICS with the same story for pro-EU Georgia (although getting better). Very interesting developments in the region.

In Yerevan, protests are taking place against Armenia's transfer of four villages to Azerbaijan as part of the border demarcation process between the two countries. Demonstrators briefly block streets to show their disagreement. In some districts of Yerevan, supporters of the protest have displayed banners with slogans such as "You are giving away Armenian lands", "Damn you", "Traitor" - likely directed at Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan.

Another meeting of the Armenian-Azerbaijani border delimitation commission has been held, resulting in several agreements:
▪️Certain segments of the border line shall be drawn directly between the settlements of Baganis (Armenia) - Baganys Ayrym (Azerbaijan), Voskepar (RA) - Ashagi Askipara (AR), Kirants (RA) - Kheyrymli (AR) and Berkaber (RA) - Gizilgadzhili (AR), to align them with the inter-republican border that existed within the Soviet Union at the time of its dissolution.
▪️Both parties will approach their respective governments to coordinate the simultaneous and parallel deployment of border services along these agreed segments of the boundary line.
▪️The delimitation process will be guided by the Alma-Ata Declaration of 1991.
▪️The commission agreed to continue delimitation efforts for all other sections of the border, addressing issues related to enclaves and exclaves as part of this process.

"Moscow will hold Yerevan accountable for its 'freezing' of participation in the CSTO. It'll do so 'by Azerbaijan's hands,' encouraging its military escalation. Currently, the West restrains Baku, but its duration remains uncertain." - Opinion from Yerevan

Opinion: "#Azerbaijan benefits if the European monitoring mission stops patrolling the border with #Armenia because 1) it makes it easier for Azerbaijan to act against Armenia and 2) seen as a win by #Russia, potentially benefiting Baku further"👇
