Additionally, Azerbaijan has been invited to Hague to participate at the Nuclear Security Summit and the country has already agreed to attend the event, according to Timmermans.
“Azerbaijan can make contribution to the nuclear security in the world,” the Dutch foreign minister said.

“Cooperation in the energy sphere became one of the crucial points during the bilateral negotiation between the two countries,” Azerbaijani foreign minister said.
The counteraction to nuclear terrorism and smuggling of nuclear materials will be the key topic of the third Nuclear Security Summit that will be held on March 24-25, 2014 in Hague.
