Azerbaijan-EU energy subcommittee meeting postponed
By Trend
The meeting of the energy subcommittee between Azerbaijan and the EU will be held on January 26-27, 2017 in Baku, a diplomatic source told Trend.
Previously the meeting was scheduled for December 14.
The event will focus on cooperation in energy, transportation,
as well as a number of regional transportation projects.
Earlier, Malena Mard, head of the EU Delegation to Azerbaijan, told
reporters in Baku that she is confident of achieving concrete
results in various fields at the meeting of the energy
subcommittee.
Currently, bilateral relations between the EU and Azerbaijan are
regulated on the basis of the Partnership and Cooperation Agreement
(1996), which came into force in 1999.
The new agreement envisages bringing Azerbaijan's legislation and
procedures closer to the most important international and trade
standards of the EU. This process is meant to improve the access of
Azerbaijani products to the EU markets.
