important events of the year, Mammadov says. The visit will positively
affect not only the development of relations between Azerbaijan and

in general, he said. Germany’s position is taken into account in
all European countries and official Berlin shows a friendly attitude
towards Azerbaijan and will continue doing so, end of quote. Mammadov

Germany will intensify the support for Azerbaijan’s just position in
individual countries and international organizations alike, a process
that started in Europe early this year.
