BAKU, Azerbaijan, December 19. Switzerland is interested in the development of cooperation with Azerbaijan through the Middle corridor, Head of Bilateral Economic Relations Division of the Swiss State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO) Erwin Bollinger told Trend.
"There is a lot of potentials. This corridor will shorten the way of supplies from East to West," Bollinger said.
"Recently, we have been in Baku International Sea Port and Alat Free Economic Zone and we see a huge potential to further grow this infrastructure," he added.
Talking about cooperation between the countries he mentioned that this year only the volume of trade turnover between Azerbaijan and Switzerland has grown by 50 percent.
