held in Baku, Trend reports.
Latvian Ambassador to Azerbaijan Edgars Skuja said that Latvia
is very optimistic about the development of Karabakh.
“I would like to emphasize that we really highly value the
relations between our countries. This is conditioned historically:
we have long traditions and rich history. Businessmen and business
communities of both countries strive for mutual cooperation,
expansion, and deepening of our ties.
Politically, we always emphasize our full support for the
sovereignty and territorial integrity of Azerbaijan. We are very
optimistic about the development of the country, regions, as well
as Karabakh, which is developing rapidly and, I am sure, will
become one of the most beautiful regions of the republic,” the
ambassador noted.
Executive Director of the Azerbaijan Export and Investment
Promotion Agency (AZPROMO) Yusif Abdullayev said that AZPROMO will
organize an export mission to Latvia next year.
“Last September, our representative took part in the 28th food
exhibition in Riga. We have previously organized an export mission
to support our companies. Next year we plan to consider
participating in this exhibition again and organize another mission
to strengthen the international presence at Riga Food.
I am sure our companies will be pleased to participate in this
significant event,” said Abdullayev.
The Director of the EU Projects Department at the Latvian
Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Liga Sičeva, emphasized increase
of the interest of Latvian companies in activities in Azerbaijan by
nearly 30 percent.
"This indicator concerns not only those who are showing
interest, but also companies that are already doing business with
Azerbaijan. I believe this is an excellent result and an important
signal for companies in both countries. It demonstrates the great
potential for expanding our cooperation, especially in sectors with
high added value, such as information technology, education, and
green technologies.
Additionally, I want to highlight the importance of traditional
industries, such as the food industry, tourism, and others," Sičeva
noted.
