Message of Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed (Dr.) I would like to express my sincere gratitude to President Ilham Aliyev for the warm and respectful welcome he gave me during my first official visit to Azerbaijan. Over the past few years, our partnership has grown steadily based on economic collaborations in the aviation sector, industrial parks and free trade zones, as well as between Ethiopian Investment Holdings and its Azerbaijani counterpart. These areas of cooperation have laid the foundation for the strengthening of our bilateral relations, and in our deep discussion today, we have agreed to further strengthen our relations and cooperation and raise them to a higher level. Today we also attended the signing ceremony of the documents of communication in defense and other sectors.
