President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev has received representative of the US Congress, chairman of the House Small Business Committee Steve Chabot.

During the meeting, Chabot noted that the South Caucasus is an important region and he began the visit to the region from the most important country of the South Caucasus – Azerbaijan.

He said his visit will contribute to better acquaintance with the region, including with Azerbaijan, and added that he will share the obtained information with colleagues in the Congress.

President Ilham Aliyev, in turn, said that despite the fact that Azerbaijan is an independent country for almost 25 years, there is still a need to inform some of the world politicians and representatives of the international community about the realities, existing policies, achievements and future plans of the country.

Chabot’s visit to Azerbaijan creates a good opportunity for better acquaintance with the country and its population, observation of development processes and familiarization with priorities, noted the president.

He also expressed confidence that the visit will be successful.

A wide exchange of views on the negotiation process to settle the Armenia-Azerbaijan Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, on processes of development going on in recent years in Azerbaijan, on reforms, as well as on the issues of mutual interest was held during the meeting.
