Now we are engaged in preparations for the III Summit of World Religious Leaders. I am confident that the Vatican, which is an important religious centre of the world, will be represented at the highest level at this forum.

APA reports that the Chairman of the Caucasus Muslims Office (CMO) Allahshukur Pashazadeh made the statement during a meeting in Baku with Secretary of State of the Holy See Cardinal Pietro Parolin.

"I am confident that the Vatican, which is an important religious centre of the world, will be represented at the highest level at this forum as well.

Reverend Cardinal! As a spiritual and political figure, you have great influence in the Holy See, and we wish you great success in your future endeavours. We ask Your Eminence to convey the sincere greetings and blessings of the faithful, religious figures, representatives of the clergy, and heads of confessions in Azerbaijan to His Holiness Pope Francis.  May the Almighty grant us new meetings with the Pontiff!" the CMO Chairman emphasised.
