The President of Iran visited Azerbaijan. Actually, he visited Azerbaijan twice: first on an official visit, and second, he attended the summit of the Economic Cooperation Organization in the liberated Karabakh, in the city of Khankendi. We established very good working relations with him.

Axar.az reports Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev made these remarks in an interview with Saudi Arabia’s Al Arabiya television channel.

"Yes, you're absolutely right. He's Azerbaijani. He has the same blood as I do. We speak the same language. We don't need interpreters. Actually, he demonstrated his knowledge of Azerbaijani poetry during one of the public events here, and he doesn't need any notes. He's a very talented person," Aliyev noted.
