According to him, the two countries may also cooperate in the field of insurance:
"Negotiations are underway between Azerbaijan and Pakistan insurance associations, so they may sign a Memorandum of Understanding and cooperate. Insurance makes up a large part of the service sector. A meeting in this regard is planned to be held in December."
