Meeting between Turkish Council for Foreign Economic Relations (TCFER) and Turkish businessmen was held in the Turkish Industrialists' and Businessmen's Association (TUSIAD) yesterday.

As APA reports, the meeting was attended by the chair of the TUSIAD's Board Batajar Baysal, Head of the Turkish-Azerbaijani Business Council Chingiz Gul, coordinator of TCFER and Turkish Eurasian Business Council Cighdem Chinar and others.

Mr.Gul spoke about economic relations of Azerbaijan and Turkey and said that those relations are not at desired level: "Last year trade operations in the amount of $795 million were implemented between Azerbaijan and Turkey. We think these are not so satisfactory figures."
