Peter Semneby said that the name of EU official representative to Azerbaijan is already known, but refused to publicize the name of the envoy.

“The EU representation will implement several projects in the framework of European Neighborhood Policy. These EU projects will be connected with the development of several sectors in Azerbaijan,” he said.

By some diplomatic sources, European Commission Special Envoy to Azerbaijan Alan Waddams nominated his candidacy for the post of EU ambassador to Azerbaijan.

Alan Waddams is expected to be appointed to this post.
