Next consultations on delimitation of the state border between Azerbaijan and Georgia will be held in autumn in Tbilisi, a diplomatic source told Trend on July 25.
During the consultations, the sides are expected to consider the issues of the state border crossing and to continue discussions on the disputed sections.

The length of the state border between Azerbaijan and Georgia is 480 kilometers. State Commissions of the two countries have already agreed on the most part of the borderline. Various sources state that 66-70 percent of the borderline is already agreed.
Earlier Azerbaijan and Russia completed the delimitation of state border. Currently, the countries hold discussions on demarcation.
