Azerbaijan is the largest trade, investment and strategic energy partner for the EU in the South Caucasus, said Azerbaijan's Foreign Minister Jeyhun Bayramov during a briefing with his Lithuanian counterpart Gabrielius Landsbergis, AzVision.az reports.
“Today during our extensive meetings with my colleague Minister Landsbergis we discussed political, economic and humanitarian aspects of our cooperation, as well as the current situation in the region.
Regarding multilateral cooperation, we had an opportunity to discuss our cooperation with the EU. The EU is the main trade partner of Azerbaijan, as 40 per cent of our trade is conducted with the EU. Documents on the strategic partnership with Azerbaijan were signed or accepted by nine member states of the EU. Our successful cooperation with Lithuania within the twinning projects of the EU is very important in this context as well,” he said.
