What really separate us is a bit of a distant and some countries, but truly what bond us is a common agenda and a common aspiration, and the idea here is that there is these commonalities would allow us to work collaboratively with each other, and I cannot add more than what His Excellency had mentioned, but it is there, it is in front of everybody, our collaboration with our friends, certainly Russia and the other OPEC Countries, and other OPEC Plus Countries has delivered us, what we are seeing today in terms of stability of oil markets.

: I wish people see our exemplary relationship with Russia, our exemplary relationship with each other as the only available tool to bring about better prosperity and more potentials of rotation and collaboration, cooperation and bringing talents to work together is the most probably the only meaningful way to reach out to our common denominators and common purposes and common ambitions, we have another commonality which is a youthful population, both in Saudi Arabia and Azerbaijan, which make it almost serious necessity that we work hard to bring about economic growth, job creation programs, more diversification of our economies, more localization of industries and jobs.

Meeting the expectations of the youth is a tough job, especially a youth that is plugged with everybody and everything that is happening in the world, but with what I see in these last few hours being here in Azerbaijan, I see potential, and I see prosperity, and I also see hope so in my personal judgment, there is no better country to live with then, but a hopeful country with a youthful population, but more important a committed leadership, and we do share that luckily.

in this respect are various approaches right now thought at the world arena we have our own approach, and our approach is meaning that so if we talk about different energy resources, so in these transitions so all of them so they will have their own participation, and from tattle point of view, what will beat the time slots in transiting to one or another? So this is the issue that is to be clarified in the future.

If I understood your question in the type of investments that we will have, I think it is going to be limitless, we have been working on drafting a joint collaboration agreement, and we are scoping the activities that we could do, and we are progressively finding it more convenient that this list is being expanded and will continue probably expand further, and I think hopefully by end of this quarter probably will see us signing something together that will elaborate on the details of this mutual collaboration scheme, you asked me that latter part of the question as a political question, I am not a politician luckily.

and this answer to your question was answered by His Excellency the President in his speech, so I refer you to him about how Saudi Arabia was forthcoming, supportive of every cause that Azerbaijan has endeavored to achieve, and we have been consistent with that ever since we were one of the first country to recognize the independence of Azerbaijan in 1991. It is always better to hear how you relate to others from the others rather than you speaking about it yourself, and the president today did honor us all Saudis of how consistent we have been with our staunch relationship and commitment to the relationship of Azerbaijan.

Well, we do meet every month, well, first of all, OPEC Plus had demonstrated beyond any doubt that we are immune and independent from any interventions or interruptions. Simply, because we have been consistent in demonstrating that we have acted responsibly and responsibly. The monthly meeting is helping us along with this phase in approach. And these increments may come and may not come depending on how we see the market evolving, this is a cautious approach that we have decided upon in July. And it was effective before July actually, but you could see how beneficial it has been.
[M082-21] · سمو وزير الطاقة(HRH the Minister of Energy) · التوقيت 00:41:14 · HRH Minister of Energy's Remarks at the Groundbreaking Ceremony of a Wind Project in Azerbaijan · 2022-01-13 · مشاهدة عند هذا التوقيت
Where we continue supply the world markets with what it is required. Yet we still have the tools in our kit to make sure that we can manage the situation subject to how many variables are happening in the same time, especially Corona, and what happens to the world economy and what have you. So many things that are at play, one of the things that we have been successful with was this time around, people are keeping it to themselves, so we make sure that none of what we discussed among us before the meeting or until the meeting is not out in the public domain and therefore, that custody and that containment of speaking about what we will do and what will do is helping us actually to make sure that speculators will speculate, but certainly will not try to speculate in oil markets.
[M082-22] · سمو وزير الطاقة(HRH the Minister of Energy) · التوقيت 00:43:39 · HRH Minister of Energy's Remarks at the Groundbreaking Ceremony of a Wind Project in Azerbaijan · 2022-01-13 · مشاهدة عند هذا التوقيت
And in that endeavor, we are not only just helping ourselves, but we are helping the entire energy industry, oil industry, even gas industry and entire energy companies. I ask our friends here and I ask who is watching us here or listening to us, if they had had ever imagined that in January 2021, 2022 sorry, and as of what we had was happening in April and May of 2020, who could have conceived that, we meet here in Abidjan and look at what is happening to these oil markets and what have you.

OPEC or OPEC Plus never established a better record than our commitment to this agreement, even with the amount and huge amount that this agreement was calling for, we have established many records, a record, a serious record on commitment to the production, we have achieved the record, and compliance never ever been achieved. We have achieved a record on how short these meetings will be, and we have also achieved the longest meeting we ever had ever OPEC or OPEC Plus had, but for the sake of stability the meeting before last, we made it indefinite just to make sure that, and we highlight that we can go all the way from a meeting of 15 minutes to a meeting of 32 days, and last of the achievement that I could probably talk about is that we achieve a straight forward consensus among us, that is rewarding all of us, and for those who may doubt that. I would not invite them, but if they wish to test that, let us do.
