Russia has not received any applications to participate in the TRIPP project, but all stakeholders are aware of Moscow's readiness and opportunities. As a result of Azerbaijan's visit, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told reporters. Lavrov attended a conference on cooperation and trust funds in Asia in Baku. “We welcomed the process of normalization of relations between Armenia and Azerbaijan and are ready to participate in infrastructure projects. Russian Railways is working within the framework of the South Caucasus Railway (SCR) Concession. This entire infrastructure is familiar to us, we provide its technological support, ”Lavrov said. In this regard, he also mentioned the“ 3+3 ”regional cooperation format initiated by Azerbaijan and Turkey. “That would be true. But whydo I mention this format - it's actually comprehensive, it's not dedicated to a single project that's intended to be implemented outside of a regional context? We have gathered several times and are now waiting for Armenia and Azerbaijan to agree on who will next host the meeting of the foreign ministers of this group. I think the upcoming meeting can be held in Azerbaijan and the next onein Yerevan. That would be true, ”he said.
