Azerbaijan seeks to strengthen ties with Paraguay

RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL – The ambassador of the Republic of Azerbaijan to Paraguay, Rashad Aslanov, said that “the aim is to work towards increasing the purchase of Paraguayan products, such as meat, stevia and other foodstuffs and that Azerbaijan can help with technology, energy and oil with agreements that benefit both countries.”

“Our aim is to strengthen relations and increase our cooperation,” he added, assuring that the European nation seeks to establish stronger commercial ties.

The ambassador said that there is room for cooperation in industrialization and manufacturing, given that Azerbaijan benefits from a “zero tax” on the export of products finished in the country.

Aslanov visited Paraguayan officials, such as the presidents of the National Congress Óscar Salomón and the Chamber of Deputies Pedro Alliana, as well as Foreign Minister Euclides Acevedo.
