Mr. Richard Morningstar also noted that Azerbaijan has demonstrated its sovereignty and independence in many ways. “In the energy area Azerbaijan fully committed itself to the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan pipeline, despite much pressure to do otherwise. This pipeline has been the cornerstone of Azerbaijan’s economic growth. And most of all the United States supported the pipeline because it helped Azerbaijan and neighboring Georgia maintain their sovereignty and independence”.

“It was equally brave for Azerbaijan to commit to the Southern Gas Corridor, which will bring gas to Georgia, Turkey and on into Europe. I was particularly pleased to help move the Southern Gas Corridor closer to realization. I also hope our bilateral economic cooperation continues to grow, not just in energy, but in other fields. And I also hope bilateral trade and investment will continue to increase”, - U.S. Ambassador to Azerbaijan Mr.Richard Morningstar said.
