00:00Olá e bem-vindos a esta edição do Agenda,

00:05brought to you from Baku in Azerbaijan.

00:08É meu prazer to welcome our guest,

00:10Florian Sengschmidt, CEO of the Azerbaijan Tourist Board.

00:13Obrigado por estar conosco hoje.

00:15Nós temos que começar com a paz.

00:17Tem paz na região agora.

00:19Poder você explicar o impacto da turismo em geral?

00:23A paz traz a nova confiança na região.

00:26A paz allows all beautiful countries

00:31to be promoted as a multi-country destination,

00:35a multi-country journey.

00:37And maybe this has been one of the obstacles in the past

00:40that every country was a single stand-alone destination.

00:45But in future, this might bring a new destination,

00:49the South Caucasus, on the map.

00:51It is the South Caucasus

00:53what defines also the broader region,

00:57and especially when we look at long-haul travelers

01:00from Asia, from the Americas.

01:02Tell me about how that's going to work

01:04in terms of connectivity within the country.

01:07Is it easy to get from Baku to other areas?

01:10It's a beautiful country.

01:11It's so much to offer that, you know,

01:13a lot of the world don't understand.

01:15Please explain what's going to happen in that way.

01:17Many cultures have criss-crossed the country,

01:21many nations.

01:23People live here of various religions,

01:25of various ethnicities,

01:27peacefully together.

01:29They think that is exactly what you feel

01:31when you also land in Baku.

01:33you have arrived to a very energetic place.

01:39And I think the mission is to take this out to the regions

01:44and to bring this same energy and development

01:49also to other parts of the country.

01:51And that's exciting, isn't it,

01:52when you look at how this can open up,

01:55especially with the borders as well,

01:57that movement.

01:58Because, as you mentioned earlier,

02:00often that hub will allow people

02:02to really plan a different kind of trip

02:05and put the South Caucasus on the map.

02:08I know it already is on the map,

02:10but really on that map.

02:12Absolutely.

02:12The South Caucasus is a destination.

02:15And not only in the region,

02:17it creates new partnership opportunities,

02:19but also for the expanded region

02:22across the Caspian with Central Asia.

02:25We're already implementing,

02:26currently is such a fruitful cooperation

02:28with Uzbekistan, for example.

02:30We have been promoting the Silk Road heritage

02:33across European cities this year,

02:36jointly with our colleagues and friends from Uzbekistan.

02:39So any opening brings new opportunities,

02:43brings new perspectives,

02:45and definitely there will be a huge benefit also

02:49for Azerbaijan.

02:50So if we look at the fact that you mentioned

02:53the number of travelers that could be coming

02:55to this region,

02:57to this country now,

02:58that it wants to be part of that tourist go-to nation.

03:05There are implications internally with that, aren't there?

03:09Because there will be a greater influx of people.

03:12Tell me about how the country is going to cope with that.

03:16Connectivity is great.

03:18Baku is connected to many places also.

03:20There is a lot of new hubs opening in the broader region,

03:24which will bring even better connectivity also to Baku,

03:28although might not be directly connected.

03:31We know the global challenges,

03:33for example,

03:34in aviation is shortage of aircrafts is everywhere,

03:37wherever you look.

03:38But with the years to come

03:40and also new aircrafts coming in

03:42for the national flag carrier,

03:44plus attracting new carriers,

03:46and again,

03:46not only to Baku,

03:48but also to the regions,

03:49will have a very positive impact.

03:52And reputation is so important,

03:54and I want to touch on trust and safety.

03:58There can be perceptions,

04:00for those who don't know about the region,

04:02about those two things.

04:04What are your comments about that?

04:06Peace will build further trust,

04:08will build more confidence

04:10to investors,

04:12to global brands,

04:13to anyone who is coming to the region.

04:17But safety is something

04:18what is a very personal perception.

04:21You cannot talk about safety.

04:23You can only feel it.

04:24So if you could describe

04:25why someone should come here to Baku

04:28and travel around Azerbaijan

04:30in one sentence,

04:33what would it be?

04:34You have semi-desserts,

04:35deserts,

04:36you have a land empowered

04:38by Mother Nature

04:39from wind,

04:41the sun,

04:42the fire,

04:43and many resources,

04:45you know,

04:46linked to that earth,

04:48and then add the layer

04:50of people on it

04:51with different cultures,

04:52with different ethnicities,

04:54languages,

04:54backgrounds.

04:55Florian,

04:55thank you for joining us

04:56in this edition of The Agenda.

04:58Thank you.

04:59Thank you very much.

04:59Thank you.

05:00Thank you very much.
