"I would like to thank President Ilham Aliyev and the International Nizami Ganjavi Center for inviting us again to Baku. I want to congratulate President Ilham Aliyev on receiving the Zayed Award for Human Fraternity in 2026, a well-deserved recognition of his leadership in ending the long-standing conflict with Armenia. I also congratulate Nikol Pashinyan, Prime Minister of Armenia. This historic peace between Azerbaijan and Armenia was achieved at a time when the world clearly lacks enlightened leaders advocating for peace," he noted.
