“This evening did also not pass without a telephone negotiation: I just finished a conversation with Azerbaijan’s Economy Minister, Mikayil Jabbarov”, Péter Szijjártó wrote in a Facebook post. “Hungary is being supplied with healthcare equipment from the East, and shipments from China will continue to play a key role in combatting the virus epidemic in the upcoming weeks and months. This is why it is important for cargo planes to have several available routes”, the Minister wrote. “My Azerbaijani colleague assured me that our goods and aeroplanes will be handled as rapidly as possible at Baku’s airport”, Mr. Szijjártó wrote.
