BAKU, Azerbaijan, October 11. Azerbaijan is also interested in investment projects in your country, President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev said during a meeting of the First Interstate Council of Azerbaijan and Kyrgyzstan in a limited format, Trend reports.
"You have noted the areas of cooperation between our countries both in the international arena and within the framework of trade and economic ties. I think that today and tomorrow both you and I and members of the delegations will have the opportunity to discuss our plans in detail and outline ways of strengthening cooperation. I have looked at the turnover figures - of course, they cannot satisfy us, but I think that the plans that we have laid out will allow us the opportunity to increase the volume of mutual trade in a short time. Azerbaijan is also interested in investment projects in your country. This is also what we will discuss today.
I would like to express my special gratitude to you for your respect for the memory of the founder of the Azerbaijani state, Heydar Aliyev. One of the large schools in Bishkek is named after him. Also, as you noted, the Park of the Kyrgyz-Azerbaijani friendship and a school named after Nizami Ganjavi will be opened. All these significant moments of our cooperation, of course, are a source of deep gratitude of the Azerbaijani people and testify to the fraternal nature of our relations. I am confident that we will continue to cooperate effectively, and the relations between our countries will develop dynamically," the head of state said.
