The construction of a joint Azerbaijan-Turkiye University is
currently underway, Azernews reports via the Azerbaijani Education
and Science Ministry.
After a visit by Council of Higher Education President
Erol Ozvar to Azerbaijan in December 2021, on March 15-17, 2022, a
delegation led by Azerbaijani Education Minister Emin Amrullayev
visited Turkiye at the invitation of the chairman of the Higher
Education Council.
During the visit, discussions were held on the rights
and obligations of the parties in the establishment of the
Azerbaijan-Turkiye University.
As of now, Turkiye has 204 universities and 51 in
Azerbaijan.
Azerbaijan and Turkiye collaborate in a variety of economic
sectors and have completed major energy and infrastructure
projects, such as Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan, Baku-Tbilisi-Kars, and
TANAP.
In 2021, Azerbaijan and Turkiye signed the Shusha Declaration on
Allied Relations, which focuses on defense cooperation, promoting
regional stability, and prosperity through establishing new
transport routes.
The two countries set up a goal of bringing the mutual trade
turnover to $15 billion in 2023. As of 2021, the trade turnover
between the two countries amounted to $4.6 billion. So far, Turkiye
is Azerbaijan's second-largest investor followed by the UK.
Additionally, Turkiye was one of the first countries keen on
involvement in the restoration of Azerbaijan's liberated
territories.
