Two days ago, “WikiLeaks” website released what are claimed to be classified cables reflecting “some confidential details” of the private meetings of U.S. officials with foreign state leaders and government representatives. Some ideas and comments from the meeting of the President of the Azerbaijan Republic with U.S. officials were also included in these documents. 

In this regard, we announce that ideas and comments displayed on the website as words of Ilham Aliyev, President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, do not reflect the reality at all and are groundless. These documents are a clear sabotage serving the purpose of spoiling the relations of Azerbaijan with its neighboring states and creating distrust and lack of faith between the state leaders. The euphemisms and sharp and emotional portrayals written in the documents do not exist in the lexicon of the President. 

The Republic of Azerbaijan has never intruded into the domestic policies of the neighboring states and has always conducted transparent policy, serving the preservation and development of good neighborly relations with the countries of the region. The President of Azerbaijan has expressed lucidly all the ideas deriving from the national interests in any given meeting or speech.

The foreign policy of the country has always been independent, continuous, logical and candid.
