Aliyev Says He is Satisfied with the Development of Relations Between Russia and Azerbaijan

Russian-Azerbaijani relations have entered a new phase, and Baku is pleased with their development. This was announced by the President of Azerbaijan, Ilham Aliyev, during a meeting with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov on Thursday, according to TASS.

“I would like to express my satisfaction with the development of political relations, the ongoing dialogue at the highest level, and the development of trade and economic ties, which also show good dynamics this year, as well as developments in the fields of transport, energy, and humanitarian areas. It is easier to name the areas where we do not have close cooperation,” said the head of the Republic.

According to him, the declaration on allied cooperation signed at the highest level between the two countries on February 22 is a fundamental document for the development of relations and “an excellent result of many years of effective cooperation.”
