Expressing gratitude for warm reception, President of Tajikistan Emomali Rahmon said:

Dear Ilham Heydarovich,

Esteemed Azerbaijani friends,

First of all, allow me to express once again our sincere gratitude for the invitation to visit Your country. We are grateful to You and in your person to the government and the people of friendly Azerbaijan for hospitality we are shown.

We attach great importance to this visit and we perceive it as logic continuation of our constant contacts that began in 2007.

In this context, with special feeling of warmth we remember Your fruitful visit to Tajikistan that has given a strong impulse to development of mutually beneficial cooperation of two countries in all spheres.

Tajikistan highly estimates friendly, substantial and constructive interstate relations with the Republic of Azerbaijan and gives particular attention to their further development.

Today, the Tajik-Azerbaijani relations are many-sided and cover key directions of cooperation. Our countries, being members of the United Nations, OSCE, the CIS, ОIC and some other international and regional associations, have the same interests that should be embodied in realization of concrete joint projects and programs in areas, where our possibilities mutually fill each other. In this context, the mentioned and other universal and regional mechanisms of interaction are a favorable platform for coordination of the efforts of two countries, as well as mutual support of positions of the sides on the global problems which are a subject of common concern.

Thank you very much.
