"We have the opportunity to meet with the Minister of Agriculture of Azerbaijan here tomorrow. I believe that this opportunity is also a great opportunity for Azerbaijan to use its important role in East-West trade. We can be good partners with Azerbaijan," US Secretary of Agriculture Thomas Vilsack said while answering APA's question during a press conference within the framework of COP29, APA reports.
"We have a great opportunity here to take advantage of the important role the country plays in East-West trade. There are huge opportunities and markets. I think Azerbaijan can play a very important role connecting East and West."
"This is an area that I think is important. The agricultural economy here is relatively small. Azerbaijan is an energy-producing country and therefore its main focus is on energy production, but I think we can also be a good partner because we have the opportunity to make a sustained effort here by embracing renewable energy," he added.
