During the visit, journalists were introduced to NATO’s operations, its institutional framework, and the organisation’s engagement with partner countries. Particular focus was placed on NATO’s growing cooperation with Azerbaijan, which officials describe as having strengthened considerably in recent years.
Valuable experience
Orkhan Amashov from AnewZ described the programme as highly rewarding, emphasising that the insights gained would help shape his understanding of NATO’s priorities and policies. While the details of the discussions remain under Chatham House rules and cannot be disclosed publicly, he highlighted the value of the briefings in broadening perspectives.
