Tatarstan Waiting for Investment from Baku
The Acting President of Tatarstan (an autonomous region in Russia) Rustam Minnikhanov arrives in Baku on a working visit.
According to the government of Tatarstan, his plan includes a meeting with the Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev and the launch of the conveyor assembly of trucks KAMAZ at the Ganja Automobile Plant (in February the Ganja Production Association signed a formal distribution agreement with JSC KAMAZ on the assembly and sale of these trucks here and in third countries).
Recall the factory in Ganja under the intergovernmental agreement assembles tractors Belarus and MAZ trucks from Belarus.
The plans of the delegation also include meetings on investment projects with members of the Cabinet of Ministers of Azerbaijan, local industrialists and entrepreneurs. --17D-
