BAKU, Azerbaijan, September 4. Future projects
are being discussed within the framework of friendship groups
between Romania and Azerbaijan, the Senator of the National Liberal
Party of Romania Cristian-Augustin Niculescu-Țâgârlaș told Trend.
The senator noted that his presence in Baku is realized due to

parliamentary commissions of Azerbaijan and Romania in the spheres
of cooperation, energy, culture, and higher education.
“Active work is being carried out between the parliamentary
commissions of Azerbaijan and Romania, especially within the
framework of friendship groups discussing promising projects.
Following Türkiye, Romania became the second country to recognize
Azerbaijan's independence. I would like to note that Azerbaijan is
a key partner for us, especially in the energy sector. This
cooperation is of strategic importance not only for our country but
also for the whole of Europe.
We are proud that Romania remains the most stable and reliable
partner in the region, and the policy of the friendship group I
represent goes towards Azerbaijan's initiatives. We are open to
supporting common projects in the fields of culture, education, and
commercial ties, which are the key to future stability in the Black
Sea region,” he said.
The official mentioned that he heads parliamentary friendship
groups with several countries in the region, including Kazakhstan,
Kyrgyzstan, and Azerbaijan, and sees huge potential for developing
cooperation, especially in the energy sector.
“Developing relations with Central Asia is a priority for us,
and I am actively working on programs aimed at strengthening
friendship and developing projects with these countries,” the
senator stated.
According to him, Azerbaijan is and must remain an important
partner of Europe.
“Romania has always supported Azerbaijan and keeps on doing so
at all levels of cooperation. Our countries are linked by strong
historical and diplomatic relations based on mutual respect and
common interests. Azerbaijan is and should remain an important
partner of Europe, and Romania will continue to play an active role
in strengthening this strategic partnership,” he added, emphasizing
the importance of further deepening cooperation between the
countries.
Niculescu-Țâgârlaș also emphasized that Romania highly
appreciates Azerbaijan's contribution to Europe's energy security,
its efforts in ensuring stable gas supplies, and its striving for
sustainable development.
