Caspian Energy Club organizes another Online Round Table

Chief of the Staff of the Food Safety Agency of the Azerbaijan Republic, Elkhan Mikailov took part in the traditional "Online Round Table" organized by the Caspian Energy Club. Discussed within the framework of the forum were topical issues and suggestions.

This was said by the Chairman and CEO of the Caspian Energy Club, Telman Aliyev.

The event began with a minute of silence in memory of martyrs who fell in the struggle for the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan.

Then Elkhan Mikailov said that he closely follows the activities of the Caspian Energy Club, and also noted the effectiveness of events which are organized by the Club to develop the business-to-government dialogue. He also stressed the importance of operation of such platforms and the significance of work they will carry out in this area.

“A new mechanism has been applied in this area with the establishment of the Azerbaijan Food Safety Agency. Just as the new food safety system is based on a mechanism of control carried out by the state, so one of its main tasks is to take a trilateral participation into account, that is to say, taking the role of the state, entrepreneurs and consumers into consideration. According to the modern concept of food security, an entrepreneur is a main supplier of this system, which is why it is important to involve entrepreneurs in this work”, he said.
Then E. Mikailov listened to the proposals of the participants of the Online Round Table and answered their questions. Telman Aliyev, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Caspian Energy Club, thanked Elkhan Mikailov for the open and sincere dialogue. He also noted the operational activities of the working group between the Food Safety Agency and the Caspian Energy Club, and expressed gratitude to the Agency's management team on behalf of the member companies of the Club.

It should be noted that the operation of the bilateral working group makes it possible to hold regular discussions with the Agency on topical issues, proposals and problems, and find solutions promptly.
