Energy Minister Eli Cohen attends a Knesset Economic Affairs Committee meeting in December.

"In difficult times for Israel, such as the ongoing and escalating conflict with Hamas, the Houthis, and even Hezbollah, who occasionally launch attacks against Israeli territory, Israel can be confident in its relationship with Azerbaijan. Azerbaijan, a Shi’ite Muslim country, has not allowed Israel’s conflict to deter it from continuing to support its partner in the fight against Iran and its proxies in the Middle East. This time, the two allied nations are strengthening their ties and expanding their cooperation in the energy sector...

Azerbaijan and Israel’s cooperation continues to grow, both through SOCAR’s purchase of a 10% stake in the Tamar field and its activities in gas exploration in Israel’s economic waters. The two countries have bound their futures together and stand to benefit significantly from the discovery of Israeli gas. It seems that only good can come from this collaboration. Let us only hope that no extremist Islamist group in the Middle East tries to sabotage this,"
according to The Jerusalem Post.
