Ilham Aliyev: Azerbaijan and Uzbekistan have been official allies for about a year

Today is a significant day in the history of relations between Uzbekistan and Azerbaijan. The state visit of the President of Uzbekistan is taking place, as it should, in an atmosphere of brotherhood and mutual understanding.

As BAKU.WS reports, this was stated by the President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev in a joint statement with the President of Uzbekistan Shavkat Mirziyoyev.

"Today, both during our bilateral meeting and during the session of the Interstate Council, we discussed a wide range of issues of bilateral cooperation, once again confirming the strategic, allied nature of our relations. Last year in Tashkent, we signed the Treaty on Allied Interaction, which is the highest and most significant document in the relations between any countries. We have been official allies for about a year and demonstrate this through active interaction in the international arena, mutual support, as well as specific plans and projects that we implement in many areas," the head of state noted.
