Baku, December 20, AZERTAC
The Bahraini newspaper “The Daily Tribune - News of Bahrain" has published an article by Azerbaijani Ambassador to Saudi Arabia and the Kingdom of Bahrain Shahin Abdullayev dedicated to National Leader of the Azerbaijani People Heydar Aliyev.
Headlined, "Azerbaijan Commemorating a Visionary Leader," the article mentioned that during the difficult period of deep economic and political crisis faced by the country in the first years of its independence, Heydar Aliyev was elected as the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan with the trust of the people and regained stability of the country in a short period, and laid the fundamental foundation for the future development.
Ambassador Shahin Abdullayev informed the Bahraini readers about the meaningful life and rich state activities of National Leader Heydar Aliyev. The diplomat noted that after returning to power at the insistent call of the people in 1993, the National Leader paid special attention to the issue of ensuring religious freedoms and the peaceful and prosperous life of the people in the country.
“A talented politician and public figure, Heydar Aliyev demonstrated his ability as a national leader when he assumed the leadership of the country during the most difficult of times, gaining the confidence of his people and laying the foundation for a country with strong economic development,” the article said.
“During his presidency, the nation’s foreign policy was rebuilt and transformed into a balanced policy. Bilateral relations between Azerbaijan and other countries, as well as cooperation with international organizations, particularly the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), and Arab World countries started to strengthen. His visit to Saudi Arabia in 1994 opened new opportunities for the development of bilateral relations and the two countries signed the first General Agreement on the economy, trade, investment, technology, culture, youth and sports,” the Azerbaijani ambassador underlined.
