"President Ilham Aliyev attaches special importance to the development of relations with Iran."

APA reports that Deputy Prime Minister Shahin Mustafayev told journalists.

Mustafayev said that the recent meeting of the presidents of the two countries opened a new era in relations between the two countries: “Trade turnover between our countries is good despite the pandemic.

We have successes and strategic cooperation in all areas.

Especially in the field of transit.

Countries are making efforts to develop the transport corridor.

We have started construction of a new Astarachay bridge.

Today we agreed to complete the construction of this bridge in 10 years.

We had a very important agreement in the transport sector.

This is the creation of new communications that will connect East Zangazur and Nakhchivan.

Two highways will be built to Nakhchivan via Iran.

The road connecting Azerbaijan with Nakhchivan will be shortened.
