Azerbaijan and China Establish Comprehensive Strategic Partnership

The Government of Azerbaijan and the Government of China have established a comprehensive strategic partnership aimed at expanding bilateral economic, trade, and energy cooperation. This agreement follows a 2025 state visit to China by President Ilham Aliyev, which secured specific agreements regarding energy storage, offshore wind power, and solar power.

Soltan Mammadov, leader of the Azerbaijan-China interparliamentary relations working group, reported that trade with China grew to 9.9 percent of Azerbaijan's total foreign trade turnover in 2025, an increase from 7.9 percent in 2024. Mammadov stated that the partnership will contribute to regional and global stability and sustainable development.

Beyond green energy, Azerbaijan has identified transport, logistics, high technology, agriculture, and industry as strategic priorities for future collaboration with China.
