Vladimir Putin’s visit to Azerbaijan, Russia’s friendliest country in the South Caucasus, was organized at a high level and ended successfully. We are proud that we also have services in this business.
The agenda of the Russian President’s visit is a clear example of the development of bilateral relations.

Azerbaijan’s accession to BRICS, in particular, has great prospects.”
