Montenegrin PM embarks on Baku visit
By Aynur Jafarova
Montenegrin Prime Minister Milo Dukanovic started his official visit to Azerbaijan on September 18.
A guard of honor was lined up for him at the Heydar Aliyev International Airport decorated with the national flags of the two countries.
Dukanovic was welcomed by Deputy Prime Minister Ali Ahmadov and other officials.
Cooperation between Azerbaijan and Montenegro started to develop faster recently.
Earlier in April 2014, Baku hosted a business meeting of Azerbaijan and Montenegro, which brought together businessmen from industry, agriculture, food industry, tourism and construction sectors to discuss the prospects of bilateral cooperation between the countries.
Azerbaijan's state energy company SOCAR is going to build a modern resort and hotel complex in place of an abandoned navy base in the Bay of Kotor. For this purpose, Azerbaijan started the $500 million investment project in Montenegro in 2013, which is scheduled to be finished by 2016.
