Baku, Azerbaijan, April 2. I am very glad that
Azerbaijan is becoming a place where the world’s main trade routes
converge, said President of Germany Frank-Walter Steinmeier during
a joint press conference with President of Azerbaijan
Ilham Aliyev, Trend reports.
The German President further stated: “Both of us are interested
not only in Central Asia but also in economic and trade relations
with the Far East, South-West Asia, and China. At the same time, we
are well aware of how limited the current transport routes are and
how they operate within their existing capabilities. In this
regard, the Middle Corridor offers an interesting prospect for the
German economy. As the South Caucasus continues to develop
politically in a more stable manner, this prospect will become even
more attractive.”
