Azerbaijani Ambassador to Ethiopia Elman Abdullayev has presented his credentials to President of Djibouti Ismail Omar Guelleh.

Elman Abdullayev conveyed greetings and best wishes of President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev to President Ismail Omar Guelleh.

Ambassador Abdullayev hailed “great” potential for the development of bilateral relations between Azerbaijan and Djibouti, which he described as “one of the significant countries of the African continent”.

Pointing to the resolution of the Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, the Ambassador noted that the decisions and resolutions of the UN Security Council, the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, the European Parliament and other organizations condemning the Armenian aggression against Azerbaijan had not been implemented so far. He said that Armenia still continued the occupation of Azerbaijani lands and as a result of the aggression more than one million Azerbaijanis became refugees and internally displaced persons.

President of Djibouti Ismail Omar Guelleh asked the Ambassador to extend his greetings to Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev.

He said his country attached great importance to developing relations with Azerbaijan.
