Baku, Azerbaijan, July 3
By Huseyn Valiyev - Trend:
Azerbaijan and Iran have agreed on all outstanding issues in the sphere of frequency resources regulation in the border territories, Azerbaijani Minister of Communications and High Technologies Ali Abbasov said.
The regulation issues of radio-frequency spectrum of TV and radio broadcasting, as well as the transit of international traffic were among the main topics of the negotiations held between the ministries of the two countries during the visit of the Azerbaijani delegation to Tehran in June, he said.
The visit of the ministry`s delegation to Tehran has an important significance and provides two directions of work, according to Abbasov. Firstly, the solution of the problems of using radio-frequency spectrum of TV and radio broadcasting and transit of international traffic. Secondly, the expansion of Azerbaijani entrepreneurs` presence in the IT sphere in Iran`s information technology market, Abbassov said.
"At present we have completely resolved all outstanding issues in the regulation of frequency and interference in the air space. The issues of using frequencies of mobile communication have also been regulated," the minister said.
As regard to the expansion of the Azerbaijani entrepreneurs presence in the Iranian market, the issue was raised earlier at the meeting of the heads of state of both countries, according to Abbasov.
"Specific agreements have been achieved in this regard within the business forum held in Tehran. I believe that access to the Iranian market for Azerbaijani companies will expand even more," he said.
