Russia's Astrakhan region intends to learn Azerbaijan's experience in the areas of iodine production and energy conservation, Industry and Natural Resources Minister of the Astrakhan region Yuri Makhoshvili said.
"There are a number of projects which are interesting for us, as Azerbaijan has extensive experience in developing such projects," he said. "The project on the iodine production from the groundwater in the Astrakhan region, which we intend to implement over the next year and a half, is one of them.
