The Republic of Korea is one of the important partners of Azerbaijan to take part in the restoration work of the liberated territories of Karabakh, and East Zangezur, Ambassador of Azerbaijan to Korea Ramzi Teymurov said, reported from Korean media sources.
The Ambassador made remarks during a reception held at a hotel in central Seoul on the occasion of Azerbaijan's Independence Day and the 30th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Azerbaijan and Korea.
"At present, Azerbaijan is the largest economic and trade partner of Korea in the South Caucasus region. Apart from the Korean Embassy, the offices of KOICA and KOTRA successfully operate in Azerbaijan as well. Azerbaijan is also one of the key partner countries in terms of the allocation of official development assistance (ODA) by Korea. Seventy-four Korean companies operating mainly in the fields of construction, trade, and transport are registered in Azerbaijan. And at the same time, Korean companies participate as contractors in state-owned projects in our country," Teymurov said.
Yun Seong-deok, Korea's deputy minister for economic affairs, delivered a congratulatory speech.
"Although Azerbaijan may be far away from Korea geographically, we are close in terms of cultural identity and mentality. There are common elements in our values," Yun said.
"The world is facing a number of transnational challenges, such as COVID-19, climate change, and the energy transition. My government is willing, and there is a need, to work and communicate closely with Azerbaijan in transforming various crises into opportunities."
