Azerbaijan's Economy Minister Mikayil Jabbarov has forecast further expansion of the non‑oil and gas sector, projecting its share of GDP will climb to 82% by 2030.
"In 2025, the non-oil and gas sector accounted for 71% of Azerbaijan's GDP, and by 2030, this figure will reach 82%",
Jabbarov said.
According to the minister, sectors unrelated to oil extraction and processing have grown at an average of 6% over the past four years.
Exports of non‑oil and gas products have also nearly doubled over the same period.
