Azerbaijan is one of the very few countries active in both the East-West and North-South corridors - President Ilham Aliyev

BAKU, Azerbaijan, September 26. So we wanted to
create such a physical and administrative environment so that
suppliers would choose to use multimodal transportation through
Azerbaijan. Because if you go through Azerbaijan, you have to also
use ferryboats, President Ilham Aliyev said at an event held as part of the 2nd Azerbaijan International
Investment Forum, Trend's correspondent reports from the event.

"So today we see a growing demand for transportation through
Azerbaijan. Whether it's East-West or North-South, we are sitting
on these two important junctures. And by the way, we are one of the
very few countries that are active participants in both
transportation corridors," the head of state emphasized.

The 2nd Azerbaijan International Investment Forum is being held
