At the meeting, which was also attended by Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade Péter Szijjártó, the parties established that Azerbaijan will continue to play an important role in Europe’s energy supply also in the future with an increase in the exploration of the country’s gas fields.
The fact that this year as many as 900 Azeri students applied for Hungarian scholarships clearly indicates the strengthening of cooperation in education, the parties confirmed.
At the meeting, the parties also discussed the fact that the volume of trade between Hungary and Azerbaijan has increased by 88 per cent this year, and there are further reserves in the economic cooperation of the two countries, Mr Havasi said.
