Azerbaijan president to visit Iran soon
Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev will reportedly pay an official
visit to the Islamic Republic by the end of the current year.
""Officials of the two countries are making preparations for the
visit,"" said Nasser Hamidi Zare, Iran's ambassador to Azerbaijan,
without mentioning a date for the visit.
""During his visit to Azerbaijan in August last year, Ahmadinejad
invited his counterpart Ilham Aliyev to visit Iran and Aliyev accepted
the invitation,"" he continued.
The Iranian official added that several documents on cooperation
between the two neighboring countries are expected to be signed during
Aliyev's upcoming visit.
Iran was one of the first countries to establish full diplomatic
relations with Baku after Azerbaijan claimed independence from the
former Soviet Union in 1991.
Aliyev was re-elected as Azerbaijan's president last week; earlier
this week he was congratulated over his victory by Iranian President
Mahmud Ahmadinejad. (Source: Press TV)
