Ilham Aliyev: At the meeting with the Prime Minister of Georgia, we discussed the new reality — the countries of the South Caucasus must remain focused on peace, stability, and security

According to the President of Azerbaijan, the investment climate allows businesses to further increase their investments.

“In the economic sphere, we have achieved very significant results. Before my visit, I reviewed the statistical data on our cooperation — billions of dollars are being spent in Georgia, and the growth is impressive. The first-quarter figures confirm this. By the end of the year, we will exceed several billion, and the investment climate allows businesses to further increase their investments. $3.6 billion has already been invested in Georgia’s economy from our country, and today we discussed new opportunities and new investment projects.

We may consider joint investments in third countries. We also discussed regional security and the current situation. The new reality that has emerged in the South Caucasus is no exception. The countries of this region must remain focused on peace, stability, and security, because in various parts of the world these principles are being violated, but here they must remain unshakable. Such events should not affect our region. In the South Caucasus, we are a region of peace, stability, and cooperation. I especially want to emphasize the extremely important role of Georgia. Mr. Prime Minister, you mentioned the peace process that is taking place between us and Armenia. The agreements we sign are not sufficient, because in the future every step must strengthen this peace. These meetings and these visits serve exactly that purpose. We have started engagement with Armenia through Georgia, and we thank the Georgian government for its support,” Ilham Aliyev.said.
