Discussions covered Azerbaijan’s energy strategy and its push to attract foreign investment through political stability and a favourable business climate. Mudenda was briefed on SOCAR’s evolution from a national oil company into a diversified international energy enterprise, along with its green energy agenda and renewable projects developed with international partners.
