Azerbaijan and Israel have discussed the importance of effective
cooperation between the two countries in the oil and gas sector,
Azernews reports.
The discussion took place during the meeting between
Azerbaijan's State Oil Company (SOCAR) President Rovshan Najaf with
Israel's Ambassador George Deek.
During the meeting, the parties emphasized the successful
development of Azerbaijani-Israeli economic relations. They
exchanged views on crude oil and petroleum products trade, as well
as other issues of mutual interest.
Azerbaijan and Israel have been expanding bilateral cooperation
over years. Cooperation between the two countries is based not only
on economic partnership but also on traditional historical and
cultural roots, as well as mutual respect and trust.
During the 44-day Second Karabakh War, Israel was among the
first countries to express support for Azerbaijan's just position
and territorial integrity. In addition, Israeli companies are
involved in the restoration and reconstruction process in
Azerbaijan's liberated territories.
In 2021, the two countries' trade turnover totaled $928.4
million.
