During the meeting in Baghdad, Minister Bayramov underscored the historic friendship and mutual respect between Azerbaijan and Iraq, highlighting growing cooperation across political, economic, and humanitarian spheres.

The meeting also addressed broader developments in the Middle East, reflecting shared concerns over ongoing instability and the importance of dialogue and cooperation in addressing regional challenges.
