Azerbaijan is among the dynamically developing countries, on which even Europe is dependent now, Interfax agency quoted Bernard Tano-Buchue, Ambassador of Ivory Coast to Russia and Azerbaijan, as saying.
Speaking about perspectives of cooperation in the economic field, diplomat mentioned that Ivory Coast is the Number one cocoa making country in the world. "Azerbaijan can import our cocoa," Ambassador said.
"We are interested in deliveries of Azerbaijani oil and gas into our country, because we do not have sufficient natural resources. We are also interested in student exchange with your country as well as cooperation in field of tourism," Tano-Buchue said.
* The capital of Ivory Coast is Abijan. By 2010 population of the country was 21.9 million. GDP per capita is $1700, which is very high for Africa.-0-
