And thank you Mr. President, we know that you are very busy these days. I might say the same thing myself that you are more productive. We are best friends. I know how difficult it is for you to schedule a visit to our country. Thank you for coming here. I believe that we confirmed during our tete-a-tete meeting the real friendship between our two countries. We will always be supportive to territorial integrity of Azerbaijan, as well as you have always been very supportive under not always very easy circumstances to territorial integrity and sovereignty of Serbia. We will keep doing the same and I know that under your leadership Azerbaijan will always do the same. We congratulate you on many successes you made in the recent period, and your economic successes are something that everybody is taking the look on and we see the real prosperous country becoming even a bigger friend, and a bigger ally for our country. Thank you once again for coming, and I hope that we will have more time to discuss it when I come to Baku and when you come back to Serbia.
