Baku: Trade relations between Azerbaijan and the United Kingdom continue to develop, said the United Kingdom's Investment Minister, Lord Jason Stockwood, who is visiting Azerbaijan, APA reports. During his visit, Lord Stockwood highlighted the progress made since the two nations elevated their cooperation to a strategic partnership last year, with trade and investment being central to this relationship.

According to Azeri-Press News Agency, Lord Stockwood met with various heads of financial institutions and investors in Azerbaijan to explore new opportunities for businesses from both countries. These discussions aim to foster stronger economic ties and facilitate mutual growth. The upcoming meeting of the Azerbaijan-UK Intergovernmental Commission later this year is expected to transform these discussions into tangible achievements, further solidifying the strategic partnership between the two nations.
