President Ilham Aliyev: Relations with Biden administration were at absolute zero

Azerbaijan's relations with the administration of former US President Joe Biden were at absolute zero, Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev said in an interview with Al Arabiya TV channel, Report informs via AZERTAC.

"Biden reimposed Section 907. Section 907 had been lifted in 2001. Why? Because they needed us in Afghanistan. They needed our sky, they needed our sea, and they needed the railroad. We provided very important support to American logistics and transportation. So as soon as Biden ran away from Afghanistan, they reimposed sanctions on us. So can you be so unthankful? What would we think about you? We cut off all relations with them. With the Biden administration, it was zero. It was a disaster. So Trump is absolutely different. He is a person who, I am sure, will not only make America great again, but will also make America admired again, as we all did in earlier times, when America was a symbol of prosperity, freedom, and development. He will do it. I'm sure if he manages, in six months, to bring peace to so many locations, he will do it. But he has strong resistance; the system is against him. And also, what I'd like to underline, especially what touched me, was how he behaved during that assassination attempt. That cannot be played —no speechwriter, no political advisor can do this. That's how a person reacts. He's a brave man and a great leader, and I am really proud that he treats me as a friend," Ilham Aliyev said.
