BAKU, Azerbaijan, March 13. Recent events have
shown how important it is to keep land borders closed, Azerbaijan's

President Ilham Aliyev’s strong leadership and unwavering
commitment to the security and well-being of his people," the Prime
Minister stated.

reaffirm the legitimacy and necessity of Azerbaijan's decision to
maintain closed land borders, highlighting that this move serves as
