Also, the realisation of the Türkiye at 100 vision will bring the country yet greater successes and victories," Sahiba Gafarova noted.

"We are extremely glad of the exemplary nature of the brotherhood, unity and strategic partnership of Azerbaijan and Türkiye that have attained their summit having been guided by the ‘one nation – two states’ principle," said in the letter.

"The cooperation between Milli Majlis and GNAT will continue evolving and broadening further thanks to combined efforts," Gafarova underlined.
