Baku, January 31, AzerTAc  “Our rapidly developing industrial sector has also allowed us the opportunity to provide ourselves with building materials in recent years. With regard to construction materials, there is a favorable picture in this area,” said President Ilham Aliyev at a conference on outcomes of the first year of implementation of the “State Program on socio-economic development of districts of the Republic of Azerbaijan in 2014-2018”.“In a country with such a dynamic development, of course, the domestic market is either filled with local produce or it happens in a few years. The Azerbaijani market is growing. Therefore, our export potential will be the driving force of the Azerbaijani economy in the future. Export potential can be created, and we are creating it. This is evidenced by the figures I am about to cite. However, we must also obtain access to foreign markets,” the Azerbaijani President added.President Ilham Aliyev said: “Currently, there is a struggle for markets. Large states and countries with major industrial capacities, connections and influence have seized all available markets. Quite often, taking advantage of their political clout, they take their products to the markets of other countries and are quite right to do so. We also do and should do that. Political power should support business. So does the Azerbaijani state, we also support business. When manufacturing industrial products, business people should first enter new markets. I have repeatedly talked about this in meetings with ambassadors working abroad. I told them: you need to create conditions for Azerbaijani businesses in the countries where you work, so that we could enter these markets with our exports.”
