“Azerbaijan has the largest trade fleet in the Caspian Sea with over 50 vessels,” said President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev as he addressed the 5th Consultative Meeting of the Heads of State of Central Asia held in Tajikistan.

“Given the growing demand of the shippers from Central Asia, we are actively working on expanding the capabilities of our shipyard.
