As you said, this year we are celebrating the 30th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations," said Chairman of the Government of the Russian Federation Mikhail Mishustin during an expanded meeting with President Ilham Aliyev, APA reports.

"A whole series of ceremonial events was held to coincide with this important event. Next year, we will celebrate the 100th anniversary of the birth of outstanding Soviet and Azerbaijani statesman, your father Heydar Alirza oglu Aliyev.

In Baku, as we noted yesterday, there are branches of our universities – Moscow State University and the First Moscow State Medical University named after Sechenov. They are operating successfully. More than 11,000 students from Azerbaijan are also studying in Russia. And such development of direct contacts between our people, their acquaintance with rich history, culture and traditions will strengthen our relations," added Russian PM.
