The interests of Azerbaijan in investments in Bulgaria are enormous, as our country can be a strategic partner.

This was announced by Bulgarian Minister of Economy and Energy Dragomir Stoynev after the meeting of the Bulgarian delegation led by Prime Minister Oresharski and the Azerbaijani President in Baku.

Minister Stoynev pointed out that Azerbaijan aims to invest in the gas storage facility in Chiren, as well as in improving and expanding Bulgarian gas infrastructure, jointly with local companies.
