During the meeting in Tehran, Ayatollah Khamenei describes the two countries' neighborhood and religious, cultural and historical ties as effective factors at the service of further strengthening of bilateral relations, and said, "The relations between the two nations and the two governments should become stronger with the passage of each new day."

He said that strengthening of the governments' relations with their nations and their religious beliefs guarantees their success.

President Aliyev also referred to the historical and cultural relations between the two countries, stressing Baku's strong and resolute will for the expansion of comprehensive relations with Tehran.
