He said that efforts to advance Ankara-Baku relations, which were elevated to the level of alliance with the Shusha Declaration signed by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev on June 15, 2021, are ongoing without interruption.

"We comprehensively discussed the relations between our brother countries and exchanged detailed views today in our meeting. We are pleased with the progress of our economic relations. As we advance our cooperation in the energy sector, we are working based on common interests and a holistic strategy," Fidan added.
