It is gratifying that Azerbaijan-United States relations have been developing successfully and on an upward trajectory in recent times. We highly value the strategic partnership established between our two countries and express our gratitude to you for the great importance and support you consistently provide to the strengthening of our interstate relations. I express my confidence that the Strategic Partnership Charter, signed in February and elevating our relations to a qualitatively new stage, will provide impetus to the development of partnership not only in traditional areas such as economy, energy, connectivity, and security but also in digital transformation, artificial intelligence, and other important directions.
“Elchi” reports that these thoughts were included in the congratulatory letter sent by the President of Azerbaijan, Ilham Aliyev, to President Donald Trump on the occasion of the 250th anniversary of the independence of the USA.
“We also highly appreciate your determined efforts toward promoting the peace agenda and ensuring sustainable development in the South Caucasus. The results of the historic trilateral meeting held at the White House on August 8 of last year at your initiative created a completely new positive atmosphere and situation in our region. Azerbaijan and Armenia are already living in peace and establishing trade relations. At the same time, I would like to specifically note the continuous support your country has shown for the realization of infrastructure projects serving stability and prosperity in the region, especially the ‘Trump International Peace and Prosperity Route,’ which will ensure an alternative, reliable, and secure connection between Asia and Europe,” the head of state emphasized.
