Hajiyev noted that Azerbaijan provided military and logistical support in the fight launched by the United States after the September 11 terrorist attacks.

“Azerbaijan has proven to be a good friend over the past 30 years. In turn, US support for Azerbaijan bolsters our country’s sovereignty and independence. It has been confirmed that this support is an important component of the regional security.”
