President of Israel Isaac Herzog said in his speech:
- Thank you very much, Mr. President. It's an honor and a pleasure to be here. We come here with an open heart, with great friendship between our nations. It’s important, of course, that you are a nation that has risen your late father and then you followed his footsteps to build an incredible place, which is a center for so many things. Partnership between Israel and Azerbaijan is a foundation for many fields which you outlined and we discussed. I think it sends a message to our peoples on many levels. First, I believe that it sends a message that Jews and Muslims can do great things together. If they move for peace together, if they have an open dialogue together, and they can do good to the world together. And secondly, it's a strategic relationship because we impact the entire region towards the direction of peace and prosperity and development. And so thank you very much for that. And of course, I'm looking forward to reciprocating in hosting you, Mr. President, in Israel.
President Ilham Aliyev: Thank you.
