On the occasion of the 30th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Kuwait and Azerbaijan, Ambassador Emil Karimov emphasized the deep-rooted relationship between the two countries, underpinned by strong cultural and religious ties, as well as successful collaboration within international organizations, Azernews reports.

Karimov stated, “Kuwait always supports the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Azerbaijan," reaffirming Kuwait's commitment to Azerbaijan's territorial rights. He announced that new agreements aimed at enhancing cooperation across various sectors, including economy and energy, would be signed soon, leveraging the geographical proximity of the two nations to foster closer ties.

He noted that the Joint Committee for Cooperation, established on February 10, 2009, will hold its next meeting in Kuwait. This meeting is expected to result in new agreements covering diverse areas such as education, justice, agriculture, culture, sports, and labor.

Additionally, Ambassador Karimov reported that over 20,000 Kuwaitis visited Azerbaijan between January and September 2024.
