Sahil Babayev, for his part, stressed on the development of bilateral relations between Iran and the Azerbaijan Republic, calling for Iran to share its experiences with them in the field of labor and social welfare.
He said that the relations between the two countries have expanded in the form of joint ventures and products, but the volume of exchanges has decreased due to the spread of the coronavirus.
It is very important for Azerbaijan to use Iran's experiences regarding employment, employer and employee relations during the coronavirus outbreak, he added.
