Armenian Critics Accuse US-Backed Transport Project of Serving Israeli Interests
תורגם ותומצת מתוך The Jerusalem Post על ידי baba
Pro-Russian Armenian critics are promoting conspiracy theories, labeling the US-backed TRIPP transport corridor as a "Jewish project" serving Israeli interests. These claims have intensified following Armenia's ratification of the project, which connects Azerbaijan to its Nakhchivan exclave. The official agreement details a majority American stake in the project's development company, with no evidence of Israeli control. These narratives echo past antisemitic conspiracy theories circulating in Armenia, particularly among Russia-affiliated voices, and emerge amid Armenia's strained relations with Russia.
