Stuart Adams, President of the Senate of the US State of Utah, has accepted an invitation to visit Azerbaijan, extended by Ramin Mammadov, Chairman of the State Committee for Work with Religious Organizations of Azerbaijan, during his visit to the United States.

Expressed gratitude for the invitation, Adams underlined the significance of strengthening cooperation with Azerbaijan and praised the country’s support of multicultural values and interfaith harmony, the State Committee told Caliber.Az.
