“After the Patriotic War there were excellent opportunities for regional cooperation. After the war, Iranian-Azerbaijani relations expanded even more. For the development of regional cooperation, a very promising cooperation platform 3 + 3 has been created. The first meeting has already been established. I am sure These meetings will be held on a regular basis and ensure the interests of the countries of the region. At the same time, I am confident that in the near future, Iranian companies will start actively working on liberated areas. The Ministry of Economy is given the relevant instructions, preliminary negotiations with the Iranian side were held, and now We are waiting for concrete results.
Yesterday you also got acquainted with the works carried out to create a Zangezur corridor. The automotive and railway are successfully built. We get positive news. Armenia for its part also plans to start work. In short, I hope that the post-war period will open up new opportunities for the entire region. Of course, the contribution of the Islamic Republic of Iran into this case is also very important.
As for other issues, the creation of the North-South transport corridor, the construction of the Hudafarine hydroelectric power station, the construction of a bridge through Astarachay and other issues were discussed yesterday with Shahin Mustafayev and, of course, will be among the priorities in the work of the Intergovernmental Commission.
should also note that my meeting with Iran’s President Mr. Rasi at the end of November was very successful and opens up new opportunities for Iran-Azerbaijani relations. This means the opening of the new page of our friendly and fraternal relations, “said the president.
