German companies are considering the possibility of participating in reconstruction of the liberated lands of Azerbaijan, German Ambassador to Azerbaijan Wolfgang Manig said, Trend reports.

According to the ambassador, Germany followed the events related to Azerbaijan liberating its territories from Armenian occupation, during the Second Karabakh War.
