Azerbaijan has expressed readiness to host a meeting between Ukraine and Russia.

Hikmat Hajiyev, Assistant to the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan – Head of the Department of Foreign Policy Affairs of the Presidential Administration of the Republic of Azerbaijan, told journalists on the sidelines of the Antalya Diplomacy Forum, Ukrinform reports citing Trend.

"This proposal was made by the Ukrainian side. If there is such an intention, we are always ready to accept this meeting. Azerbaijan has previously hosted meetings between US and Russian generals, as well as a meeting within the framework of Russia–NATO dialogue. The logic here is that Azerbaijan is a member of neither NATO nor the CSTO. At the same time, Azerbaijan is the head of the Non-Aligned Movement,"

He noted that Azerbaijan continued to provide humanitarian aid to Ukraine.

According to Hajiyev, the presidents of Azerbaijan and Turkey make efforts to end the war in Ukraine.
