‘Thanks to both cargo and passenger transportation, Azerbaijan has become a regional hub in this area’
Baku, January 13, AZERTAC
“New liners are being delivered to our country. Azerbaijan has become the first country in the CIS where two “Boeing-787 Dreamliner” aircraft have been delivered,” said President Ilham Aliyev at a Cabinet meeting.
“Modern airliners were also acquired in the previous periods. New routes are being opened. Air transport is important for every country. Thanks to both cargo and passenger transportation, Azerbaijan has become a regional hub in this area. We must further enhance our role in this. Our geographical location should be underpinned by a powerful transport infrastructure. The construction of the commercial seaport and the construction of the Baku-Tbilisi-Kars railway are projects closely related to each other. We must expand these corridors. The North-South and East-West corridors pass through Azerbaijan. The transport infrastructure emerging in Azerbaijan will serve both our country and our neighbors,” the head of state added.
