Azerbaijan has achieved a lot in recent years, Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko told journalists following negotiations with Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev in Baku, Olaylar informs referring to BelTA.
"Azerbaijan has achieved a lot in recent years, and above all, by solving its main problem (the return of lands that for a long time simply turned into desert)," noted the president of Belarus. "This is a difficult story. But the lands have been returned, they need to be revived. This will be probably a much longer and no less difficult task that Azerbaijan will have to solve."
"The fact that you have returned the lands, are reviving them, this will remain for centuries. If in this great matter of reviving these lands you find us a place where we can lend our shoulder, and it will be beneficial to you, we will do it with great pleasure. Moreover, we will do it in a way that no one else in the world will do, because of the respect and our relations between the fraternal peoples of Belarus and Azerbaijan," Lukashenko added.
