Why Is the UK Also Present in the Zangezur Corridor?
webangah News Agency, International Desk: Dariush Safarnezhad, a senior expert on the Caucasus, said at the international conference “Zangazur Corridor: Geopolitical Threats Against Iran and Perspectives of Various Actors” that the “Zangazur” plan is essentially a NATO project with NATO as its main driver behind the scenes. The United States and the United Kingdom lead NATO.
He added: All energy transit routes pass through the South Caucasus. Most consortia are managed by British Petroleum; thus, the British have substantial economic interests there. By 2025, the United States and Britain will be the two dominant players in this region. Governance in the South Caucasus has effectively become Americanized. When NATO is mentioned, it reflects consensus because 32 NATO member nations cooperate here. NATO acts as a primary leader while Americans control field operations.
