Aliyev said priority industries for investment in Azerbaijan

In general, the investment climate in Azerbaijan is very positive. Proper protection of both foreign and local investments is ensured.

About this in an interview with the Chinese television channel CGTN (China Global Television Network) was stated by Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev.

The Head of State expressed hope for an influx of investment in the Neneftegas sector.

“We hope that the volume of investments in the non -energy sector will increase, since most investments have been entered into the oil and gas sector of Azerbaijan. It was natural and we understand this. But now it’s time for us to think more about diversification. Rather, not think, and act. Therefore, investments in the non -energy sector, in infrastructure, in transport infrastructure, in particular, in renewable energy sources, are one of our priorities, ”said Aliyev.

.

The President noted that the creation of a free economic zone in the ALAT area near Baku is at the final stage.

“We hope that Chinese companies will pay attention to these opportunities. Of course, our geographical location between the east and the West, directly on the traditional route of the Silk Road creates many opportunities for us. We just need to correctly plan and build our policy, and also create the best conditions for foreign investments, ”said Aliyev.
