“Firstly, it is technology, communication and broadband Internet. Latvia has fast Internet not only in cities, but also in most rural areas, we have such technology companies as MicroTik and others.

The second is construction, because Latvian companies have already participated in various renovation projects in different countries.

The third is forestry and reforestation. Currently, there are only about 11 percent of forests in Azerbaijan, but historically, forest areas have been larger.

Reforestation is important for all countries in the world because it mitigates the effects of climate change,” he added.
