BAKU, Azerbaijan, October 5. The visit of the
President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, Ilham Aliyev, to Berlin
marked a promising start to the implementation of a new strategic
agenda between Azerbaijan and Germany, German Ambassador to
Azerbaijan, Dirk Lölke, said at an event marking German Unity Day,
Trend's correspondent
reports from the event.


“I believe that every new ambassador thinks that with his
arrival in a new country, bilateral relations will enter a new
phase and soon reach an unprecedented level. I am no exception. On
that day in July, when my wife and I arrived in Baku, Azerbaijani
President Ilham Aliyev traveled to Berlin to sign the ‘Strategic
Agenda’ document with the German Federal Chancellor, thereby truly
elevating our relations to a new and unprecedented level. The visit
of the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, Ilham Aliyev, and
his delegation to Berlin marks a very promising start.


“I look forward to working closely with you on this agenda in
the coming years,” Lölke noted.


He also stated that Germany highly values the peace process
between Azerbaijan and Armenia.


“It will take time, but lasting reconciliation in the region
must serve as the foundation for economic progress and
international cooperation,” the ambassador said.
