There are no disputed issues on the Azerbaijan-Georgia borderline, but rather issues that have not been agreed upon, Aykhan Hajizada, the spokesperson of the Azerbaijani Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said in an interview with Report.
“It is heartening to witness the successful development and enrichment of our partnership, which is built on a foundation of mutual trust and support. The strategic transport, energy, and infrastructure projects that we jointly implement not only serve the interests of our countries and peoples but also play a crucial role in the wider region, opening up invaluable opportunities,” Hajizada said.
Regarding the process of border delimitation and demarcation, the MFA spokesperson said this is a time-consuming matter:
“Since 1996, a relevant commission between the two countries has been working on delimitation, and to date, 2/3 of the borders are considered agreed upon. We believe that there are no disputed issues on the Azerbaijan-Georgia borderline, but rather issues that have not been agreed upon. This is natural, as the border issue is important and complex for any state. The borderline should be determined in such a way that it does not need to be revisited. Work in this regard is currently ongoing.”
