Israeli President Isaac Herzog arrived today, Tuesday, in Baku, on a state visit at the invitation of Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, a visit aimed at strengthening strategic relations between the two sides.

"I am leaving now on an important official visit to Azerbaijan, at the invitation of President Ilham Aliyev," Herzog said in a statement before his departure, describing Azerbaijan as a "friendly, important, key country and we have many areas of cooperation.

He stressed, "We must remember that, in addition to trade relations, and outside of historical relations, including the historical Jewish community, Azerbaijan is Iran's neighbor. Iran is considered an unstable factor in the region, and it constantly seeks to take measures against the State of Israel and against the peace and security coalition growing in the region, and I will certainly discuss that".

i24 news reported that Herzog was received in Azerbaijan by a guard of honor, 30 children from the Jewish community, as well as officials from the Azerbaijani government and the Israeli ambassador in Baku.
