Denmark may cooperate with Azerbaijan in the agricultural sector on the country’s liberated areas, Ambassador of Denmark to Azerbaijan Danny Annan told Trend.

He said that during his visit to Azerbaijan, the ambassador also visited the liberated areas of Azerbaijan, in particular Aghdam city, where he heard about the Azerbaijani government’s reconstruction program in these areas.

"The focus is overall on a 'smart and sustainable city' and here I believe there’s a good scope for cooperation between Denmark and Azerbaijan," added the ambassador.

He said that Denmark can contribute to the development of the Azerbaijani city of Agdam, in particular, help to create 'smart and sustainable city', he said.

Speaking in terms of 'smart and sustainable city', the ambassador pointed out that in this regard Denmark can contribute with a lot of good solutions.

"Of course all the mines should be removed first, but after that, we believe that there’s a good scope for agricultural production in this area," added the ambassador.

Talking about overall cooperation between Azerbaijan and Denmark, the ambassador noted that there’s a big scope of cooperation between Denmark and Azerbaijan when it comes to the oil and gas sector.

As he said even though Danish Maersk Drilling has completed its mission in the Shah Deniz project, there are clearly other opportunities for the company in the country.

"Hopefully, we will see continued cooperation between Maersk Drilling and Azerbaijan in the near future to the benefit of both sides, which will also strengthen the bilateral cooperation between our two countries," said the ambassador.
