Podgorica, Montenegro (10 April 2019) – Prime Minister Duško Marković hosted earlier today Ambassador of the Republic of Azerbaijan Eldar Hasanov. The meeting noted that Montenegro and Azerbaijan can further enrich their excellent political bilateral relations with stronger economic cooperation and more investment in tourism, but also energy and infrastructure.

"Montenegro has made a huge step forward in overall progress. We've been NATO member state for two years now, we have progressed far in the negotiations with the EU and we are strongly committed to economic growth and development issues," PM Marković stressed.

Furthermore, he pointed to important economic parameters - a growth rate of 4.9 percent in the previous year, a steady increase in revenues, an increase in the number of employees by 12,000, a decrease in unemployment by six percent, and added that the industry grew in the previous year.

"I sincerely congratulate you on this result," Ambassador Hasanov said, adding that Azerbaijani investors are interested in new investments in tourism resorts as well as in infrastructure strengthening projects.

The meeting discussed the largest investment from Azerbaijan in Montenegro - Porto Novi, which will give new quality to the tourist offer of our country.

The Ambassador particularly appreciated stability and security in Montenegro and praised its constructive role in the region.
