By Sadraddin Aghjayev - Trend:
The information has been spread this week that the negotiations are underway between the Azerbaijani and Iranian state structures on construction of the Astara-Rasht transport corridor, which will connect the railways of two countries.
This issue is on the agenda of Azerbaijan and Iran. The work is underway to assess the future prospects of this project, its capacity, opportunities for the countries and the region as a whole.
The German Agency for International Cooperation (GIZ) will support the development of the private sector in Azerbaijan, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the sectors of agriculture, tourism, logistics and transport.
The agency will continue to support various activities in the field of improving governance, gender equality and assisting vulnerable groups.
“Introduction of dual-like approach to vocational education and training (VET) in the target occupations in logistics and transport sector, based on the German dual system will continue to be a focus of GIZ,” the agency said.
The Azerbaijani Ministry of Digital Development and Transport will simplify the procedures for registration of civil unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) this year.
To simplify these procedures, it’s necessary to create an appropriate infrastructure to digitalize all processes.
The specific spheres and steps have been determined. In this regard, it is possible to talk about a project which will be created based on a single website accepting online applications. This project will be implemented this year.
