The contributions of the Intergovernmental Commission to strengthen these relations were underlined. It was agreed to hold the 17th Meeting of the Joint Intergovernmental Commission on Economic Cooperation between two countries in the second half of October 2020. The suggestion to hold the 2nd meeting of the Working Groups on transit of Kazakhstan's oil and oil products through Azerbaijan and delivery of Kazakhstan's oil products to Azerbaijan, and on delivery and transportation of liquefied natural gas (LNG) from Kazakhstan through the Caspian Sea to Azerbaijan in September was reviewed.

We are doing our best to achieve the fulfilment of our commitments."
