The European Union has implemented 213 projects in Azerbaijan in various spheres until 2016 through the TAIEX program, the head of the EU Delegation to Azerbaijan, Malena Mard, said at a workshop on operations and management in sea ports in Baku.
She noted that the operations within the TAIEX program started 10 years ago in EU's neighboring countries and more than 3000 projects in the spheres of transportation, food security and energy have been implemented over those 10 years, Trend reports.
With its geographical location, Azerbaijan has a great potential to turn into a transportation and logistics center connecting the North with South and the East with West, Malena Mard added.
Head of the EU Delegation noted that the expansion of cooperation between the Baku Sea Trade Port and European ports, the use of advanced world technologies there, is an important step for reaching this goal.
She said she believes that the Baku Sea Trade Port will play an important role in turning Azerbaijan into Eurasia's transportation center.
