They stressed the significance of mutual visits by delegations of the two countries' relevant agencies.
Garibashvili expressed the hope that his Azerbaijani counterpart Zakir Hasanov will visit Tbilisi.
Garibashvili, who visited Azerbaijan in March 2020, then described the visit as a clear example of the high level of cooperation between the two countries and stressed the significance of such meetings in terms of expanding cooperation. Back then, at the meeting with his Georgian counterpart, Hasanov said that the strategic partnership between the two countries is at a high level and plays an important role not only in the development of both countries but also in ensuring security in the entire region.
