На Кавказе приветствуют реализацию ядерного соглашения с Ираном

Правительства Грузии, Армении и Азербайджана приветствовали реализацию ядерной сделки между Ираном и западными странами, надеясь, что это приведет к новой эре процветания и мира в регионе.

Иран, который граничит на севере с Арменией и Азербайджаном, отказывается от потенциала по созданию ядерного оружия в обмен на окончание санкций, которые ограничивали экономику страны в течение многих лет.

В четверг президент Азербайджана Ильхам Алиев созванивался с иранским коллегой Рухани.

По имеющимся данным, Алиев поздравил Рухани и они обсудили совместные проекты, такие как энергетика и инвестиционные возможности, и перспективу железной дороги между Астара, в Азербайджане, с одноименным городом в Иране.

"Азербайджан всегда был против этих санкций и делал официальные заявления по этому поводу", сказал президент Алиев.

Отмену санкций также приветствовали в Армении, которая совместно с Ираном работает над различными энергетическими проектами, хотя прогресс замедлился из-за ограничений на торговлю.

Однако в августе было подписано соглашение, по которому Армения будет экспортировать электроэнергию в Иран по новой ЛЭП в обмен на иранский газ.

"Армения заинтересована в углублении взаимовыгодного сотрудничества с дружественным Ираном", сказал министр иностранных дел Армении Эдвард Налбандян.

Новость также приветствовали в Грузии.

"Решение и успешная реализация соглашения ... представляют собой важный шаг, открывая новые возможности для региона и всего мира", говорится сообщил МИД этой страны в четверг.
