Ambassador of Uzbekistan to Azerbaijan Ismatilla Ergashev visited a
permanent mission of the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic in Baku on
July 13.

Head of the mission Rashad Gulamov greeted the ambassador and spoke
about the history of friendly relations between Azerbaijan and
Uzbekistan. According to him, nationwide leader Heydar Aliyev’s and
President Ilham Aliyev’s visits to Uzbekistan gave an impetus to
development of bilateral relations. Uzbekistan’s attention to the
Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic is the result of these visits.

Ambassador I. Ergashev expressed gratitude for the hospitality and
noted that Uzbekistan and Azerbaijan are fraternal countries in view
of single language, religion and culture. Tashkent keeps problems of
Azerbaijan, in particular, Nagorno-Karabakh conflict in the focus of
attention. Ambassador noted that Uzbekistan supports peaceful
resolution of the conflict respecting the territorial integrity of
Azerbaijan. The main objective of the visit is to provide the library
of the Society of the Blind with Koran copies written in Braille
script. It will allow the blind reading the holy book.

Then, ambassador and Rashad Gulamov exchanged views on a variety of
issues.
