    42 IPRI Journal Pakistan XVI-Azerbaijan, No.1 (Winte Economicr 201 and6): Defence42-58 Cooperation Pakistan-Azerbaijan Economic and Defence Cooperation Dr Kamal Makili-Aliyev and Khurram Abbas** Abstract Azerbaijan and Pakistan have a very unique political relationship that has surpassed territorial boundaries and geographical distance. It offers opportunities for cooperation in many areas, especially in the economic and defence sectors. Diplomatic relations, established since Azerbaijan‟s independence from the Soviet Union in 1991, have allowed these two countries to start developing cooperation very rapidly. Pakistan was the second country to recognise Azerbaijan‟s independence, and has not established diplomatic relations with Armenia.1 Both countries have supported each other diplomatically on the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and Kashmir dispute at all international forums. This article is an attempt to identify the prospects and potential of strengthening economic and security ties between Pakistan and Azerbaijan. It also tries to explore the reasons behind the low volume of trade between the two countries, and makes concrete recommendations on how this trade volume can be increased. Key words: Pakistan, Azerbaijan, Economy, Security, Defence, Cooperation. Introduction akistan and Azerbaijan share common historic, cultural and religious values. The relationship between the two countries has covered P economic, defence, political and diplomatic cooperation since Azerbaijan‟s independence. However, despite a historically cordial political and strategic relationship between the two countries, their bilateral economic relations remain tepid. Both countries began economic The author is a Research Fellow at the Center for Strategic Studies (SAM) under the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan. ** The author is a PhD scholar at the Centre for International Peace and Stability (CIPS), National University of Science and Technology (NUST), Pakistan.

    The State as a (Oil) Company? The Political Economy of Azerbaijan∗ Samuel Lussac, Sciences Po Bordeaux GARNET Working Paper No. 74/10 February 2010 Abstract In 1993, Azerbaijan was a country at war, suffering heavy human and economic losses. It was then the very example of a failing country in the post-soviet in the aftermath of the collapse of the USSR. More than 15 years after, it is one of the main energy partners of the European Union and is a leading actor in the Eurasian oil sector. How did such a change happen? How can Azerbaijan have become so important in the South Caucasian region in such a short notice? This paper will focus on the Azerbaijani oil transportation network. It will investigate how the Azerbaijani oil company SOCAR and the Azerbaijani presidency are progressively taking over this network, perceived as the main tool of the foreign policy of Azerbaijan. Dealing with the inner dynamics of the network, this paper will highlight the role of clanic and crony capitalist structures in the makings of a foreign policy and in the diversification of an emerging oil company. Keywords: Azerbaijan, Network, Oil, South Caucasus, SOCAR.

This study has mainly been written during a research fellowship at the University of Oslo thanks to the generous support of GARNET (FP 6 Network of Excellence Contract n°513330). 1 Introduction Since 1991, Azerbaijan has drawn the energy sector’s attention, first for its oil reserves and now for its gas ones.
