During the meeting, the sides discussed current bilateral relations developing between the Republic of Azerbaijan and Kuwait and prospects for possible cooperation in relevant fields.

The Ambassador noted that “Relations between Azerbaijan and Kuwait are developing rapidly in all spheres. 16,477 Kuwait tourists came to Azerbaijan only in the second half of 2017. Direct flights have been opened through three airway companies. Wataniya Airways has three flights a week, Jazeera Airlines routes twice a week, and Azerbaijani Airline flies once a week. Kuwait is the nearest Arab country in terms of distance, and the direct flight is less than two hours. This is a positive indicator for the tourists from Kuwat”.
