SOCAR is not going to buy a bitumen plant in Armenia

The State Oil Company of Azerbaijan (SOCAR) has refuted information about the purchase of a bitumen plant in Armenia.

As stated in an interview with Trend, Deputy Head of the Department for the Organization of Events and Public Relations SOCAR Ibrahim Akhmedov, such absurd statements are incompatible with SOCAR scales.

SOCAR – Global Brand of Azerbaijan, the largest foreign investor in Turkey, the largest taxpayer in countries such as Azerbaijan and Georgia, a company operating in Europe and leading power in large international projects, such as “South Gas Corridor”. You do not need a bitumen workshop in any province. We have no interests in Armenia at all, “said Ahmedov.
