The president of Uzbekistan Shavkat Mirziyoyev arrived in Azerbaijan. This has been reported by APA.
In an international airport of Heydar Aliyev, an honorary guard was built to honor the high guest, where the flag of both countries shook, the report said.
Mirziyoyeva at the airport was met by the first Deputy Prime Minister of Azerbaijan Yagub Yagub Eyubov and Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Samir Sharifov. President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev was not present.
Earlier, the Vedomosti newspaper wrote that serious political relationships of the Russian Federation and Azerbaijan could cause a depression of economic relations between nations.
Director of the International Trade Research Center of the President of the President, Alexander Knobel, believes that Azerbaijan in this case will be in a weaker position. Currently, Azerbaijan bought from Urals of the Russian Federation for domestic consumption and sending separate varieties (Azeri light) for export. In addition, Russia is one of the main markets for fruits and vegetables for Azerbaijan.
With the breaking of trade relationships, Baku may lose its market and suppliers, but also the logistics partners.
