situated in the Caucasus, but already politically and from an
economic and transportation point of view, we are part of the big
Central Asian region, President Ilham Aliyev said at an event held as part of the 2nd Azerbaijan International
Investment Forum, Trend's correspondent reports from the event.
"And also, the administration, digitalization of transportation,
customs administration, and very clear and understandable
regulatory rules in Azerbaijan—all of that will strengthen our
potential. If the geopolitical situation in our region changes and
goes back to how it was five years ago, we will still be attractive
to suppliers," the head of state noted.
