According to the Press Service Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Minister Jeyhun Bayramov expressed his gratitude to Ms Kojic for her efforts in strengthening cooperation during her service in Azerbaijan, and wished her success in her future endeavours.
During the meeting, the sides exchanged views on the ICRC’s 33-year presence in Azerbaijan, the current state and prospects of the peace process between Azerbaijan and Armenia, the reconstruction and rehabilitation efforts in the liberated territories, the ongoing landmine threat, and the issue of missing persons.
