Processes to launch charter flights between Azerbaijan and the north are at an advanced stage, according to head of the ruling coalition in the north Ünal Üstel.
According to the Turkish Cypriot online press, speaking in Baku during an event marking Turkish Cypriot cultural days, Üstel said significant progress has been made in contacts with the government of Azerbaijan.
He stated that the two sides are close to signing ‘cooperation agreements’, which are expected to pave the way for regular charter flights in the near future.
According to Üstel, the development aims to boost tourist arrivals to the north, while also deepening ties in the fields of trade and education.
During his speech, the Turkish Cypriot politician praised Azerbaijan’s stance and personally thanked Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev for his support.
