Recalling the successful implementation of the Trans Adriatic Pipeline (TAP), Aliyev highlighted Italy’s role in ensuring Azerbaijani gas exports to Europe since 2020. He added that the two countries are now working on new initiatives in the field of electricity exports, which will further expand cooperation. The President also pointed out that the inauguration of the Italy-Azerbaijan University, scheduled for tomorrow, demonstrates that bilateral relations are extending into the humanitarian and educational spheres.
Italian President Sergio Mattarella, in his statement, expressed gratitude for the hospitality shown and praised the strong friendship and mutual understanding between the two countries. He stressed that ties have expanded beyond energy and industry to include culture and education.
Mattarella underlined that the opening of the Italy-Azerbaijan University will strengthen people-to-people connections and serve as a bridge of friendship between the nations. He further emphasised that Italy would continue to support the development of Azerbaijan’s relations with the European Union, describing Azerbaijan as an important and influential partner for the bloc.
According to Mattarella, both countries are determined to elevate their partnership to an even higher level, broadening cooperation into new areas for the benefit of their peoples.
