A new shipment of Russian wheat has been transported through Azerbaijan to Armenia, highlighting the growing role of regional transit corridors in facilitating trade across the South Caucasus.

The latest consignment, consisting of 770 tons of wheat carried in 11 rail wagons, departed from Azerbaijan’s Balajari railway station and is being routed through the Boyuk-Kesik station before continuing via Georgia to Armenia, The Caspian Post reports via Report.

The shipment is part of a broader flow of goods moving through Azerbaijan between Russia and Armenia. To date, more than 34,000 tons of grain have been transported along the route, alongside nearly 8,000 tons of fertilizers, 133 tons of aluminum, 68 tons of buckwheat, and 414 tons of anthracite coal.
