The head of state mentioned Azerbaijan’s joining 76 Council of Europe conventions. The significance of the Baku Process, which Azerbaijan initiated to promote dialogue between the Council of Europe and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, was also highlighted along with other cooperation matters in a variety of fields.
