President Ilham Aliyev highlights development potential of Azerbaijan–Japan relations

The head of state noted that a history of good partnership with Japan has been established across various fields. He also emphasized that alongside the energy sector, there is potential for expanding relations in the defense industry, as well as the possibility of establishing joint ventures.

"True, there are fewer projects at present, and we do not see many diplomatic contacts between our countries over the last 5-6 years. This has been the situation since the Second Garabagh War, but the potential is still there. I think there should be more contacts among government officials, business circles, and companies. In that case, we will be able to identify additional advantages of our cooperation," President Ilham Aliyev added.
