"Taking into account that the country`s main expenses are associated with financing of major projects, Azerbaijan may minimize the impact of external risks through its fiscal policy," he said.
Gvindadze also stressed the achievements of Azerbaijan’s non-oil sector.
"The non-oil sector growth rate greatly exceeds the oil sector, although Azerbaijan’s economy still depends on oil,” he said. “Some 85 percent of exports, 40 percent of the economy account for the oil sector. The main task of the Azerbaijani government is to change this ratio."
