Azerbaijan, Georgia to set up border crossing with EU funding
BAKU – A joint border crossing will be created between Azerbaijan and Georgia under a project financed by the European Union, the project manager for Azerbaijan, Mazahir Afandiyev, has said.
The initiative, aimed to support integrated border control systems of the South Caucasus states, was launched by the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) and the Azerbaijani government in September. The EU has allocated 6.3 million euros for the project.
The project seeks to boost cooperation between institutions in the area of border control, increase Azerbaijan’s bilateral and regional collaboration with neighboring countries, excluding Armenia, the EU member states and international organizations, and provide border security.
