Azerbaijan and Dagestan have a lot of joint projects on the agenda, Ramazan Abdulatipov, head of Russia`s Dagestan Republic, told on May 12.
Abdulatipov, who is on a visit to Baku, said the purpose of his trip is to fully realize Dagestan`s potential, its historic role and closeness to Azerbaijan for intensifying the Russia-Azerbaijan relations.

"Today, we will discuss a lot of projects, including those in the sphere of culture at [Azerbaijan`s] Ministry of Economy," he added.

A large number of projects, including those on restoring Derbent and opening a street named after Heydar Aliyev, are already under implementation, said Abdulatipov.

"The cooperation between our countries will continue. We have got support from Azerbaijan`s president," he added.

Abdulatipov noted that before visiting Azerbaijan, he had agreed many points of cooperation with Russia`s presidential administration.

"We intend to give the highest possible momentum to the Russia-Azerbaijan relations by holding the `Days of Dagestan` in Azerbaijan," he added.

Currently, there are many logistics, agricultural, cultural and sports projects on the agenda of cooperation, he said, adding those projects can significantly improve the cooperation between Russia and Azerbaijan.
