"The Azerbaijani side has already agreed; they are ready to become our strategic partner to attract neighboring countries and create even some kind of union - a union of women of the Caspian countries, which are united by business," Bryntseva said after the Astrakhan-Azerbaijan women's entrepreneurship forum.

She noted that the forum will help organize the exchange of information and will promote the development of trade relations and attraction of investments in the regional economies.
