Azerbaijan President Ilham Aliyev arrived in Pakistan for a two-day official visit from July 11-12, at the invitation of Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif.
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif warmly welcomed the visiting dignitary upon his arrival.
A 21-gun salute marked President Aliyev’s arrival, and two children in traditional attire presented him with bouquets.
During the visit, President Aliyev will meet with Prime Minister Shehbaz and President Asif Ali Zardari.
The two sides will engage in comprehensive discussions on mutual interests to further enhance bilateral cooperation, with several agreements and MoUs expected to be signed.
“The visit of the Azeri President reflects the robust cooperation and leadership-level dialogue between the two countries.”
Recently, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif attended the inaugural session of the Pakistan-Turkiye-Azerbaijan Trilateral Summit, held alongside the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) Summit.
The summit was also attended by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Azerbaijan President Ilham Heydar Aliyev.
During the session, PM Shehbaz Sharif proposed the establishment of tripartite institutional mechanisms, particularly in economic and investment areas, to further strengthen Pakistan-Turkiye-Azerbaijan trilateral economic and commercial cooperation.
