A shipment of wheat from Kazakhstan arrived in Armenia today, having traveled through Russia, Georgia, and Azerbaijan. The wheat delivery was made possible by agreements between the leaders of Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan to resume cargo transit to Yerevan.

As reported by the "Caucasian Knot," Azerbaijan lifted restrictions on cargo transit to Armenia. Russian Railways organized the shipment of more than one thousand tons of wheat from Dimitrovgrad station in the Ulyanovsk region to Armenia. The Armenian government noted that this fulfilled one of the agreements reached in the United States, which contributes to strengthening the peace established between Yerevan and Baku. On November 7, the government of Kazakhstan announced the shipment of wheat to Armenia via Azerbaijan. "The delivery became possible for the first time in 30 years thanks to agreements between the heads of state of Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan, which allowed transit through Azerbaijan to resume. The lifting of all restrictions on cargo transit to Yerevan was announced at a meeting between Presidents Kassym-Jomart Tokayev and Ilham Aliyev on October 21, 2025, in Astana," the Kazakh government reported on its website.

On the night of September 7-8, the first grain train from Kazakhstan arrived in Armenia, having traveled through Russia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia, News.am reported today.

The train was met at the Ayrum station by Armenian Minister of Territorial Administration and Infrastructure David Khudatyan. He stated that the delivery of the cargo became possible due to the signing of the ceasefire agreement between Armenia and Azerbaijan in Washington on August 8. Khudatyan noted that the signing of this agreement has not only important political significance but also economic significance, as it significantly reduces the time it takes for cargo to reach the country.

On August 8, Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev and Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan signed a declaration on the cessation of hostilities at a meeting in Washington. However, Aliyev and Pashinyan did not sign the peace agreement, but only initialed it, and most of the declaration's clauses contained vague wording, analysts noted.
