The Embassy of the Republic of Sudan in Baku has issued a statement to commemorate the 33rd anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Sudan and Azerbaijan, celebrated on 25 July 2025.
The statement highlights that this date symbolises the steady and deepening cooperation between the two friendly nations across multiple fields, as well as their alignment on numerous regional and international matters of shared interest.
It notes that the formalisation of diplomatic ties in 1992 laid a strong foundation for political dialogue between Khartoum and Baku, fostering a dynamic partnership over the past three decades, particularly in political and diplomatic arenas.
Key moments in this relationship include the visits of General Abdel Fattah Al-Burhan, President of Sudan’s Transitional Sovereign Council, to Baku in 2019 and 2024. These visits, for the Non-Aligned Movement Summit and the COP29 World Leaders’ Summit on Climate Change respectively, played a crucial role in advancing bilateral ties. During both events, President Al-Burhan met with Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, holding discussions on historical relations and exploring ways to enhance cooperation in all spheres. These talks also emphasised coordinated action in regional and global platforms, with recent discussions continuing during the Antalya Diplomatic Forum in April 2025.
Preparations are currently underway for a new round of political consultations, reflecting Sudan’s continued commitment to deepening its relationship with Azerbaijan. The Embassy underlined that the two countries are working to strengthen collaboration in key areas such as trade, investment, transportation, and capacity-building. There is also mutual interest in launching regional development initiatives based on shared experience and complementary strengths.
The Embassy concluded by reaffirming Sudan’s firm confidence in the enduring partnership with Azerbaijan, expressing optimism for its continued growth in a way that reflects the shared aspirations of both nations and further strengthens their longstanding political and cultural ties.
“Long live Sudanese-Azerbaijani friendship!” the statement ends.
