A few days ago, news broke that the Baku-Tbilisi passenger train would resume after six years. Social media erupted: some called it fake, insulting media outlets.
Day two confirmed the news. Complaints shifted to ticket prices. ADY announced prices: Baku-Tbilisi minimum 81 AZN, cheaper from other stations. Social media flared again.
Day three focused on travel time: why 9 hours? ADY explained infrastructure and border procedures. Actual travel time is similar to driving.
Interestingly, conspiracy theories persist despite facts. First reaction is emotional: denial, then price outrage, then time complaints.
Some demands are absurd: 20 AZN ticket, free travel, hotels and meals. Hope authorities ignore this “public order”.
In conclusion: emotional reactions dominate social media. Waiting for facts is healthier. However, the train's return is a positive step.
