During the conversation, it was emphasized that the adoption of this Declaration officially elevated our relations to a qualitatively new level. It was once again noted that relations between Azerbaijan and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland had the character of a strategic partnership even before the adoption of this document.

Speaking about the successful cooperation between our countries in the energy sector, which has been ongoing for more than 30 years, the head of state noted that the United Kingdom is the largest European investor in Azerbaijan.

It was emphasized that currently there are broad opportunities for cooperation also in the fields of renewable energy, high technologies, and artificial intelligence. In this regard, the significance of the visits of high-ranking representatives of the United Kingdom to Azerbaijan in recent months and the negotiations held within their framework was noted.

During the meeting, an exchange of views on issues of the international agenda also took place.
