President Saakashvili will meet his Azerbaijani counterpart, Ilham Aliyev, in Baku on September 13, the Georgian President’s administration said.

It said that on September 14 the Georgian and Azerbaijani Presidents, joined by President of Romania Traian Băsescu, will discuss a Romanian-proposed project to transport Caspian gas to Europe via Georgia.

The project is known as Azerbaijan, Georgia, Romania Interconnection (AGRI).

Earlier this year the state energy companies of Azerbaijan, Georgia and Romania agreed to set up a Bucharest-based joint venture to proceed with the project, which envisages transportation of about 7 billion cubic meters of Azerbaijani gas through pipeline to Georgia’s port of Poti and then to Romanian port of Constanţa via Black Sea on tankers.
