Azerbaijan is keen to purchase the most modern, high-tech weapons from Pakistan, Azerbaijan’s President Ilham Aliyev said in a joint press statement with Pakistan’s Prime Minister Muhammad Nawaz Sharif in Baku Oct. 14.

 

The president noted that a significant part of the discussions with the Pakistani PM was about military cooperation between the two countries.

 

"The two countries enjoy good military cooperation. We discussed plans for joint military training between the Armed Forces of the two countries,” said Ilham Aliyev. "At the same time, Pakistan’s defense industry is very developed, and we thoroughly discussed bilateral cooperation in this field. Azerbaijan has been developing its defense industry for 10 years. Thus, we can work jointly to launch production in defense industry."
