"First of all, I would like to express my gratitude to you for creating the conditions for us to visit your beautiful country, your beautiful city, your capital. We have heard about Baku for a long time, and thanks to your invitation, we are now visiting Azerbaijan and Baku. Therefore, thank you once again," said President of the Republic of the Congo Denis Sassou Nguesso during the expanded meeting with President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev, APA reports.
"You have summarized our one-on-one meeting. I would just like to make a couple of comments that there is a lot of potential between our countries and it can contribute to development for our people. As I mentioned, for example, that our country has a huge agricultural potential, and we use maybe only 3 percent of the cultivated land, which means that all the rest is available for use. We have abundant water sources and the Sun that shines all year round. We can use this potential and your great experience in this field for the development of our agriculture. For example, we can produce a product in Congo and then export it.
At the same time, I would like to mention again that we have great potential in the field of renewable energy, we have the Sun all year round, and we can take advantage of Azerbaijan's rich experience in this field."
