Azerbaijani president Ilham Aliyev has emphasised the country’s strategic importance in Eurasian transport networks, stating that "It is impossible to imagine the transport map of Eurasia without Azerbaijan, without its transport infrastructure."
Speaking at a meeting dedicated to transportation issues, Aliyev highlighted Azerbaijan’s role in major international trade routes.“Currently, the East-West and North-South transport corridors pass through our territory. The volume of cargo transported along these corridors is increasing by the year. In addition to physical infrastructure, other steps have been taken to ensure more efficient transportation of cargo, including attention paid to digitalization. New formats of cooperation with neighbouring countries have been created and joint ventures, joint companies have been established. In short, Azerbaijan today is one of the indispensable transport hubs of Eurasia,” he said.
