“His invaluable contribution to the comprehensive development of the region, his initiatives to ensure peace and security in the world, the importance and effective results of the energy projects he has created, as well as his economic strength and favorable geographical position are steadily raising the international prestige of our country, which is developing day by day. As a result of the wise and purposeful policy of President Ilham Aliyev, having complete economic independence, implementing a balanced foreign policy, as well as restoring justice with his glorious victory, gave our country a positive image on a global scale. As well as the fact that Azerbaijan, deeply respecting the norms and principles of international law, highly values every signature made in bilateral relations on all issues, makes it known as a reliable and loyal partner in the world. It is the result of this policy that both regional and international organizations and world States are very pleased with cooperation with Azerbaijan on any issue. I would like to note that one of the priorities in Azerbaijan’s foreign policy is relations with Arab countries, and relations with these countries have been expanding especially in recent years. Let me remind you that during the period of the occupation of Armenia, which lasted 30 years, the Arab countries continuously defended the Just Cause of Azerbaijan and supported its territorial integrity and sovereignty on all platforms. Of course, this was one of the most sensitive moments for us at that time.”

Chairman of the Confederation of Trade Unions of Azerbaijan, MP Sattar Mohbaliyev said in his statement to the mass media.

Referring to the relations of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) with Azerbaijan, which is one of the leading countries of the Arab world and possessing wide opportunities, the chairman of ATUC said that since the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries, our relations have developed on the basis of mutual respect and sincere friendship: “I remind you that the official visit of Also, during the next visit of President Ilham Aliyev to this country in 2016, the documents signed on cooperation in the field of maritime transport and information and communication technologies led to the expansion of cooperation. Bilateral relations based on solid foundations have become more widespread in recent years, especially in the field of energy. The favorable investment climate created in Azerbaijan attracts the attention of UAE companies.

Thus, the fact that the Masdar company of this country invests in the “green energy” sector, relying on the political stability existing in our country, is a confirmation of what we said.

The deputy of the Milli Majlis stressed that the visit of the president of the UAE Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan to our country, the discussions held and the documents signed on new areas will strengthen the existing relations and open up greater opportunities for the expansion of our relations.

At the same time, the chairman of the ATUC expressed confidence that the joint efforts of both countries in this area, which responsibly approach the issues related to climate change, which is a global problem, will give a positive result.
