They both praised the increasing frequency of high-level contacts recently and emphasised the importance of ensuring the continuity and productivity of this dynamic engagement.
The importance of further enhancing efforts and dialogue within the existing frameworks between the two sides was underlined.
The conversation also covered efforts to expand cooperation in areas such as energy security, transport and communications, and trade and economic relations.

The significance of initiatives aimed at improving and diversifying the region’s transport and communication infrastructure, both through expanding existing routes and creating new ones, was also recognised.
Minister Bayramov provided Kaja Kallas with an update on regional security matters, the post-conflict situation in the South Caucasus, Azerbaijan’s efforts to ensure lasting peace and stability, and the latest developments regarding Azerbaijan’s peace agenda.
