Türkiye completes preparations to open border crossings with Armenia

Türkiye has completed preparations to open its road and rail border crossings with Armenia, the APA news agency reported, citing Türkiye’s Minister of Transport and Infrastructure, Abdulkadir Uraloğlu.

The minister said the necessary work had been completed to open both the Margara–Alican road crossing and the railway crossing. He said he had discussed the matter with his Armenian counterpart.

Armenia, for its part, has completed the renovation and re-equipping of the Margara road crossing. In August 2026, State Revenue Committee Chairman Eduard Hakobyan said the crossing was ready to become operational.
