Muslim countries always support Azerbaijan in international organizations and are well aware that Azerbaijan also supports Muslim countries in all international organizations.

“We have conducted, are conducting and will continue to conduct numerous activities related to the promotion of Islamic culture in various countries of the world. Exhibitions, culture programs, presentations, conferences – all these steps pursue one goal: to present Islamic culture and Islamic values to the world as they are, to raise our voice against distortion and incorrect ideas about Islam in a number of cases and convey realities. I know that our activities in this field are perceived with great respect in the Muslim world. Our activity shows again that Azerbaijan is making a great contribution both to the promotion of Islamic culture and to the trend of solidarity among Muslim countries,” the head of state said.
