We are very actively trying to activate our cooperation with members of the African Union. Several years ago, I established an Azerbaijani embassy in the African Union, in Ethiopia, by my decree. This was to find grounds for cooperation with many member countries of the African Union, with which we already have very active cooperation," said President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev as he addressed the second Shusha Global Media Forum themed “Unmasking False Narratives: Confronting Disinformation.”
"Of course, our chairmanship in the Non-Aligned Movement helped a lot to establish practical contacts. Now, we have already had visits from heads of states and official visits, and during the COP week, I have already received letters. I sent invitations to my partners and got responses from many African countries’ presidents indicating that they will personally participate in the event. This will be another good opportunity for establishing contacts," the head of state underlined.
