evidence: Azerbaijan calls Meghri, and the rest of Armenia’s Syunik province, the Zangezur corridor. Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev and other officials have described opening this corridor as a top objective — one that is now in direct focus following Baku’s recapture of the long-disputed territory of Nagorno-Karabakh. [...] But in 1992, with Armenia and Azerbaijan at war over Nagorno-Karabakh, revenge attacks escalated. A group of Azerbaijanis hijacked the train running from Yerevan to Kapan as it passed through Nakhchivan and took 12 wagons full of mostly Armenian passengers hostage for a week. [...] Baku insists these fears are unfounded. Elin Suleymanov, Baku’s ambassador to Britain, said that those fearing Azerbaijani military action were living in "a paranoid dreamworld" and that Azerbaijan had no military objectives on Armenia’s territory.
