The Secretary-General of TÜRKPA held a meeting with Kazakhstan’s Foreign Minister during the 19th Ministerial Meeting of the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM), held on 15–16 October in Kampala, Uganda.
The Kampala meeting focused on strengthening international peace and security, promoting sustainable development, enhancing the Movement’s institutional capacity, as well as addressing developments in the Middle East and other pressing global issues.
Azerbaijan was represented by a delegation led by Deputy Foreign Minister Samir Sharifov. In his opening remarks, Sharifov highlighted Azerbaijan’s initiatives during its chairmanship, contributions to the institutional development of NAM, and stressed the importance of solidarity and unity among member states.
He also briefed participants on recent progress in the Azerbaijan-Armenia normalisation agenda and the large-scale restoration and reconstruction work underway in the country’s liberated territories.
As a former chair and current Troika member of the Movement, Azerbaijan also participated in the NAM Palestine Ministers Committee session. Sharifov referenced President Ilham Aliyev’s participation in the Sharm El-Sheikh Peace Summit on 13 October, underlining Azerbaijan’s role as one of the few NAM members invited and emphasising the importance of rapid, sustainable peace and security in the Middle East, along with the country’s ongoing humanitarian initiatives in the region.
During the meeting, several bilateral discussions took place. Azerbaijan signed agreements with Uganda on the mutual exemption of diplomatic and service passport holders from visas, and with the Federal Republic of Somalia on the same issue for diplomatic passport holders.
The agreements aim to expand Azerbaijan’s bilateral relations with African countries, facilitate mutual visits, and further develop diplomatic ties.
