BAKU, Azerbaijan, June 18. While investing
heavily in infrastructure, we have concentrated not only on
infrastructure inside the country, but also on infrastructure that
has an international dimension, President Ilham Aliyev said during
his speech at the opening ceremony of the 2026
Annual Meetings of the Islamic Development Bank Group.
The head of state emphasized the ongoing efforts to transform
Azerbaijan, which is geographically landlocked without direct
access to the world's oceans, into an international transportation
hub.
