"We discussed in detail our trade and economic cooperation. We agreed that the volume of trade between our countries does not meet the potential the parties have. In this regard, we agreed to take urgent action to increase it," President of Tajikistan Emomali Rahmon said in a joint press conference with President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev in Dushanbe, APA reports.
"As part of the talks, we separately focused on cooperation in the areas of investment, industrial interaction, agriculture, transport, and the fuel and energy complex.
In the field of industrial cooperation, we have identified ample opportunities for the implementation of joint projects in the light, chemical and mining industries, in the production of building materials, processing of aluminum, cotton fiber, precious and semi-precious stones and metals.
In the energy sector, we confirmed the interest in the participation of Azerbaijani companies in the development of oil and gas fields in Tajikistan.
We will continue to actively use the convenient transit opportunities of Azerbaijan and increase the volume of freight traffic of Tajik state and commercial entities.
During our talks, special importance place was attached to the humanitarian direction of our relations in the field of education, science and culture," President of Tajikistan said.
