The administration of US President Donald Trump has demonstrated its commitment to Azerbaijan's peace agenda, Hikmat Hajiyev, Assistant to the President of Azerbaijan and Head of the Foreign Policy Affairs Department of the Presidential Administration, told The Washington Times.

Axar.az informs, citing Repоrt, in an article covering the peacebuilding process between Azerbaijan and Armenia, steps toward repealing Section 907 in the US Congress, Baku's relations with Moscow, and Azerbaijan's ties with Israel, the newspaper cited Hajiyev as noting that the US President's immediate response to the peace agenda deserves high praise.

Hikmat Hajiyev also emphasized that the very existence of Section 907 hinders peace: "Both governments - Azerbaijan and Armenia - are making an uphill struggle of strengthening the peace," he said. "But some in Congress are introducing completely unnecessary and divisive legislative acts."
