"One of the goals of sustainable development is precisely the transition to green energy. We welcome the idea of the Azerbaijani government to create a green zone in Karabakh," Khojimatov said.
He noted that UNDP, together with the World Bank and the EU, organized a mission to assess the volume of restoration work in the Azerbaijani territories liberated from Armenian occupation [in the 2020 Second Karabakh War], and the first report was already prepared in late March this year.
The official stressed that the de-mining process in the liberated lands still remains a priority area in cooperation between Azerbaijan and UNDP.
He added that UNDP has already implemented several energy projects with the State Oil Company of Azerbaijan (SOCAR), as well as a number of projects with the public and private organizations, projects in the field of water and agriculture.
