The Azerbaijani Government is preparing for the visit of the Head of the Russian Government, Mikhail Fradkov, to Azerbaijan on 4-5 December, a Government source informed Trend.

The visit is dated for the closing of the Russian Year in Azerbaijan.

During the visit, the next meeting of the Intergovernmental Commission for Economic Co-operation between Azerbaijan and Russia will not take place. The session should take place in Russia, but prior to the visit of the Russian Prime Minister to Azerbaijan, it was suggested the meeting be held in Baku. Azerbaijan did not refuse, but due to the fact that Baku has not received any official proposal or an appropriate agenda for the meeting, Azerbaijani cancelled the arrangement.

In addition, the Government is working on the signing of bilateral documents at the time of the meeting. According to the information provided by the Government, Russia has submitted its proposals to the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry. There are several new issues and the Azerbaijani Foreign Minister plans to submit its modifications for signing.
