“I believe that the peace agreement you have jointly implemented with Armenia sends a very strong signal to countries around the world," said member of the judging committee of the Zayed Award for Human Fraternity – former President of the European Council Charles Michel, in his meeting with President Ilham Aliyev.

"Despite difficulties, past and present suffering, there is a shared will to look to the future – even modestly – with optimism and hope. This aligns with the values we wish to promote and defend. Because we believe these values should be encouraged even more in the future. I would like to reiterate that we appreciate your leadership and this peace agreement. Through our decision on the award, we wish to demonstrate our support for all your efforts to make this peace agreement a reality, and to express positive hopes and prospects for the region, the South Caucasus, and the wider area,” he said.
