Saparmurat Niyazov

Former President of the Republic of Turkmenistan

I am pleased that the head of state of Azerbaijan, Heydar Aliyev, pays great attention to bilateral relations between Turkmenistan and Azerbaijan, to the prospects and opportunities of our countries’ cooperation in various fields for the benefit of our peoples.

Today, the successes and achievements demonstrated by Azerbaijan are much more important and significant. All this is the result of the great personal contribution and distinctive courage of Heydar Aliyev, the well-known leader of the Azerbaijani people.

Your aid to us is immense. Your personal assistance in the admission of Turkmenistan to the UN and the Economic Cooperation Organization, and in obtaining the neutral state status is invaluable and significant. My dear brother Heydar Alirza oglu, by consulting with you on every issue we will try to remove all obstacles that we encounter.

I believe that your political experience and knowledge of life will help in the development, progress, and elimination of the current problems of fraternal Azerbaijan.

As a result of the clear-sighted foreign policy of President Heydar Aliyev, Azerbaijan stood in line with the civilized and developed countries of the world.

I highly appreciate the well-known leader of Azerbaijan Heydar Aliyev as a politician.
