A reception has been hosted in honor of participants of the 6th Global Baku Forum.

President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev and first lady Mehriban Aliyeva attended the event, which was attended by current and former state and government officials, famous politicians and public figures.

Addressing the reception, President Ilham Aliyev said:

- I have been informed that very interesting and fruitful discussions were held at the opening and panel sessions of the Forum. I am confident that your communication and the ideas that have arisen after your comments will be very valuable for our future activities and for meeting the goals they serve.

I am very glad to see all our guests in Azerbaijan. I see many of my old friends, both current and former heads of state and government, the leaders I worked with for many years. I remember my visits to your countries and yours to Azerbaijan. We have had very good business relations, and these relations have helped establish closer contacts between Azerbaijan and your countries.

Thank you for being with us, for your contribution and support of the International Center of Nizami Ganjavi. Of course, I want to express my special gratitude to Madam President Vike-Freiberga and Mr. Serageldin once again for the tremendous – I think this would be right the right assessment of their activities – contribution to our common goal. Thank you very much
