President Aliyev arrives in Great Britain

By Nigar Orujova

Azerbaijan's President Ilham Aliyev arrived on a working visit to the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland on September 3.

The head of state will participate in the NATO summit in Wales, the largest gathering of international leaders ever to take place in Britain, on September 4-5.

This summit will be the first NATO summit since Chicago in 2012, and the first NATO summit in the United Kingdom since Margaret Thatcher welcomed NATO leaders to London in 1990.

President Obama, Chancellor Merkel and President Hollande are expected to attend along with leaders and senior ministers from around 60 other countries.

The summit comes as NATO draws down from its longest ever mission in Afghanistan and against a backdrop of instability in Ukraine. It is an opportunity to ensure that NATO continues to be at the forefront of building stability in an unpredictable world.
