In accordance with the instructions and recommendations of the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, Mr. Ilham Aliyev, the Prosecutor General's Office attaches special importance to the expansion of ties in the field of legal cooperation with law enforcement agencies of foreign countries.

During the bilateral meeting held at the General Prosecutor's Office, Prosecutor General Kamran Aliyev welcomed the guests and said the friendship and cooperation relations between Azerbaijan and Kenya are expanding day by day.

Noting this year's celebration of the 20th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between our countries, the Prosecutor General emphasized that the establishment of the Azerbaijani Embassy in Nairobi in November 2022 is an indicator of the upward development of bilateral relations.

He expressed interest in studying the Azerbaijani model in the field of exchange.

Kamran Aliyev noted that in the past years, Azerbaijan was also one of the countries subjected to terror, Armenia kept Azerbaijani lands under occupation for a long time, but under the leadership of the victorious Supreme Command, the thirty-year occupation of Azerbaijani territories was stopped, and in September 2023, as a result of anti-terrorist measures of local nature carried out by the Azerbaijani army, Azerbaijan fully restored the integrity of the country.

The Prosecutor General noted that, due to the attention and care of the country's leadership, large-scale construction and reconstruction works have been carried out in the territories liberated from occupation and invited the Kenyan guests to visit Aghdam district.
