By Trend

Estonia considers Azerbaijan as a possible corridor to markets of Iran, Middle East and India, Deputy Secretary General for Business Development at Estonian Ministry of Economic Affairs Viljar Lubi told Trend in an exclusive interview.

Estonian railway companies and sea ports have good relations with Azerbaijan Railways and Baku International Sea Trade Port, according to him.

"Estonia is currently working on opening a transit corridor between Scandinavia, Middle East and Central Asia," Lubi said, adding that Estonia carefully watches for cooperation development between Baku and Tehran in this regard.

He underlined that Azerbaijan plays a very important role for the access to Iranian market.

Azerbaijan and Iran together with other countries currently work on the North-South Transport Corridor designed to connect Northern Europe with Southeast Asia. It will serve as a link connecting the railways of Azerbaijan, Iran and Russia.
