BAKU, Azerbaijan, December 14. President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev has written his name in history for what he has done for Azerbaijan and the Turkic world, said Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan during the joint press briefing with Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Jeyhun Bayramov, Trend reports.
Fidan also noted that Türkiye honors the memory of Azerbaijan's national leader Heydar Aliyev with respect and reverence.
"His leadership and vision opened a path for Azerbaijan that everyone envies today. Our ties with Azerbaijan are developing every year," he added.
Fidan also noted that he has had the opportunity to visit Azerbaijan over the past 20 years while working in various positions.
The Turkish minister emphasized that strengthening relations between Türkiye and Azerbaijan in all spheres is a shared responsibility of the two nations.
"First of all, security is very important in terms of communications and power lines. A protocol of intentions on the Kars-Nakhchivan railroad was signed during the Turkish President's visit to Nakhchivan. We intend to realize this project as soon as possible. Transmission of Caspian oil through TANAP to Türkiye and from there to Europe is one of the key elements of our strategy," Fidan added.
