Azerbaijani media reports that country’s president, Ilham Aliyev, is in Singapore.
On November 23, during the dinner given by President Tony Tan of Singapore, announced that Azerbaijan and Singapore have a lot of similarities.
“The example of Singapore is very attractive for countries which have recently gained their independence. Therefore, cooperation between the two countries, of course, is developing rapidly and successfully. Another similarity is multiculturalism in our countries. This is one of the greatest positive qualities of the two countries” said Alliyev adding “We work hard and together in many areas, in various international organizations. I am grateful to your country for supporting us during the election of Azerbaijan in October last year as a non-permanent member of the UN Security Council, as well as for the fact that it voted for adoption by the Summit of the Non-Aligned Movement the resolution on the Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, based on the principles of territorial integrity”.
Aliyev underscored that the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict is the greatest threat to regional security and stability.
