Ukraine seeks to expand cooperation with Azerbaijan in post-war reconstruction - deputy minister

LEIPZIG, Germany, May 25. Ukraine is eager to increase cooperation with Azerbaijan in the post-war reconstruction activities, Serhiy Derkach, Deputy Minister for Communities, Territories and Infrastructure Development of Ukraine, told TurkicWorld on the sidelines of the International Transport Forum's Annual Summit.

He noted that, from this perspective, Ukraine has all types of communication with the Ministry of Transport of Azerbaijan.

"Recently, we have been cooperating on issues regarding transit permits. We have already received a quick response from our Azerbaijani colleagues in terms of giving these permits to Ukraine," he said.

The deputy minister added that Ukraine will be happy if these transit restrictions would be pulled down completely, at least while the war is still underway, and, overall, will be glad to improve any sorts of cooperation with Azerbaijan.
