Transport and communications are an important area of cooperation between Azerbaijan and the EU, Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Jeyhun Bayramov said at a joint press conference with EU Commissioner for Neighborhood Policy and Enlargement Oliver Varhelyi, paying a visit to Azerbaijan, AzVision.az reports.
The Minister noted that the trade turnover between Azerbaijan and the EU last year amounted to $15.2 billion.
"This growth was mainly due to the increase in gas prices. Azerbaijan can become a bridge between the EU and Central Asian countries in the transport sector," Bayramov added.
