President Ilham Aliyev Emphasizes Importance of Neighborly Relations for Regional Transport Hub Development

Munich: Azerbaijan has invested in the creation of physical infrastructure, including seaports, as well as cargo transportation by rail and air. Clearly, to become a regional transport hub, you must have good relations with your neighbors, President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev said during the panel discussion titled 'Open Corridor Policy? Deepening Trans-Caspian Cooperation' held in Munich as part of the Munich Security Conference, APA reports.

According to Azeri-Press News Agency, the head of state emphasized that Azerbaijan is working toward becoming a regional transport hub from both Western and Eastern perspectives. Azerbaijan's geographical location, situated between Asia and Europe, provides an advantage. However, Aliyev noted that without the appropriate infrastructure, this advantage would not be fully realized.
