BAKU, Azerbaijan, November 28. The potential
for cooperation between Latvia and Azerbaijan significantly exceeds
the current level, the Latvian Ambassador Edgars Skuja told
reporters on the sidelines of the Azerbaijani-Latvian Information
and Networking Meeting today, Trend reports.
“This is already the third day of our business delegation’s work
in Baku, and it has been extremely productive. We have managed to
establish many contacts and have meaningful discussions, and I’m
convinced that this meeting was highly significant. We have gained
valuable information and useful insights from various institutions
and organizations.
The meetings and the establishment of B2B contacts continue. I
am confident that the potential for cooperation between Latvia and
Azerbaijan far exceeds the current level—in business, trade, and
joint projects. We already have traditional areas, such as exports,
but I believe we need to move forward,” he said.
The ambassador pointed out that Azerbaijan is showing impressive
progress: new technologies are being actively implemented, green
energy is being developed, along with wind and solar parks, as well
as energy storage systems.
“Therefore, in my opinion, we should pay special attention to
new technological opportunities. We must consider the prospects for
joint projects in a wide range of industries. In our work, we aim
to take into account the interests of both sides: the Latvian
business community and those areas that may be attractive for
Azerbaijan. This approach allows us to act in the interests of both
countries and their entrepreneurs,” added Skuja.
To note, as of today Baku is hosting an Azerbaijani and Latvian
gathering for networking and information sharing.
