The Republic of Azerbaijan plans to increase investment in Ukraine up to $1.5-2 billion this year.
"We want to raise this level [of investment] up to $1.5-2 billion overall. And now we intend to do this through our two trading houses - these are good sites and good economic opportunities, where business circles of Ukraine and Azerbaijan gather and discuss necessary and concrete things," Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Republic of Azerbaijan to Ukraine Azer Khudiyev said in a commentary to an Ukrinform correspondent.

The ambassador also noted that agreements had already been reached between Ukrainian partners "on more joint ventures established in one or another territory."

"We have intentions to invest here. So in this regard, I have recently talked to our economy minister. He will do the Ukraine-Belarus-Moldova tour soon. Our president gave an instruction to strengthen our economic positions in this region," Khudiyev added.
