/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Azeri President Ilham Aliyev received an official
invitation to visit Washington.
It will be Mr. Aliyev’s first official visit to the US since he was
elected as President in 2003. The official visit is scheduled for
the end of April.
During the visit Aliyev will meet President Bush and other officials
of the Administration. Upcoming visit’s details will be discussed at
the Mammadyarov-Rice meeting on April 7. Possibility of the visit
is high due to the strategic relationships between Azerbaijan and
the US, but there is no exact date, Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry’s
press service said. Some analysts think the visit is connected with an
Iranian problem and settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict. Azeri
political scientists think the US will try to involve Azerbaijan into
anti-Iranian coalition, reports Day.az.
