Estonian Parliament Chairman Juri Ratas has said that Azerbaijan is of great importance to the European Union (EU), especially given the situation with the shortage of oil and gas, Azernews reports with reference to Juri Ratas's post on his official Facebook post.
"Azerbaijan is also important for the European Union, because, given the shortage of gas and oil, it is Azerbaijan that can offer cooperation to the European Union before the upcoming heating season," he said.
