Baku, Azerbaijan - April 28, 2025 President of Iran made the statement. [00:00:00 - 00:00:07] Before anything, I would like to thank and appreciate my dear brother from the south, Mr. Ilham Aliyev, the honorable president of Azerbaijan. [00:00:07 - 00:00:13] For his hospitality, for his warm welcome and kindness, and especially for the high regards he has for the region. [00:00:13 - 00:00:20] In terms of cultural, religious, and political thoughts, we can work together in many fields. [00:00:20 - 00:00:27] Our relationship is not something that has just started, nor is it something that we will discover a new. [00:00:27 - 00:00:32] We have been together for a long time, throughout the old days, and we have been with each other in the same path for years. (historical ties) [00:00:32 - 00:00:37] Now, in reality, we are like neighbors, neighbors who are very vital to each other, who always visit each other and support each other. [00:00:37 - 00:00:44] We share many cultural, religious, and political commonalities, and we take pride in these shared values. [00:00:44 - 00:00:47] Based on these commonalities, we aim to continue to develop our economies with strength. [00:00:47 - 00:00:52] In many areas, we can strengthen each other and the region, using each other's markets and connections. [00:00:52 - 00:00:57] With the agreements that have been signed today, I have taken steps to implement a strategy for our joint future. [00:00:57 - 00:01:05] We must continue to work together and be strategic about our future. [00:01:05 - 00:01:12] We will work to improve in all areas—cultural, scientific, economic, and political—together as one. [00:01:12 - 00:01:19] Together, we can establish peace, calm, and security, and we can resolve our challenges together. [00:01:19 - 00:01:27] I am confident that if we, as Islamic nations, will work together as brothers and sisters, with respect for each other's sovereignty and integrity, we can resolve conflicts in the region. [00:01:27 - 00:01:36] By working together and respecting each other's policy, we can avoid the negative impacts of new challenges and create a better future. [00:01:36 - 00:01:46] We can strengthen our connections, improve economic ties, trade, and cooperation in the east, west, north, and south. [00:01:46 - 00:01:58] By helping each other, we can foster production, investment, and collaboration. [00:01:58 - 00:02:14] In the fields of production, knowledge, culture, and politics, we will stay united and not allow anyone to disrupt this cooperation. [00:02:14 - 00:02:22] We have many shared interests and family bonds, and these are things that cannot be torn apart. [00:02:22 - 00:02:36] With determination and resolve, we will carry out our agreements, and all that we have signed today, we will implement it together. [00:02:36 - 00:02:47] With these actions, I feel that we have the power and determination to improve our region and secure a better future for ourselves.
