"Dear Mr. Prime Minister, I am glad to see you," President Aliyev said welcoming the Georgian prime minister. "Welcome to Azerbaijan. I am glad to see you again in our country. We already are meeting second time this year, also we had several telephone conversations discussing important issues of our bilateral relations."
"Today we surely continue our dialogue," the president added. "Political dialogue between two brotherly countries has always been very active and continues to be active now. We closely cooperate in issues related to foreign policy, especially in our region with the new challenges, and new opportunities."
"Of course strengthening political ties between our countries is important not only for our people but also for the whole region," President Aliyev said. "I looked at some data and saw that we have good progress in economic development. Trade turnover is growing. Today there will be a meeting of intergovernmental commission which I am sure will cover many important areas, review what has been done, and plan our future steps."
"We are very encouraged by the very positive investment climate in your country, economic reforms which allow you to resolve many social and economic issues," the president said.

"Of course, today we will also talk about traditional areas of our cooperation, like oil and gas, electric energy, transportation," President Aliyev said. "So, these projects have already been implemented. We now enjoy the benefit of these projects which created a very special format of cooperation between our countries, because these projects are important not only for our countries but for many more countries in the Eurasia region."
"So, I am sure that today’s visit will also give a new boost to our cooperation and I want to express gratitude for accepting my invitation and visiting us," the president added. "You are welcome once again."
