Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev on Monday said the results of the parliamentary elections held in Georgia last month reflected the “will of the Georgian people”.

In a meeting with the Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze, Aliyev congratulated the Government head on the victory of the ruling Georgian Dream party in the vote, the Azerbaijani President’s office said.

The meeting also highlighted the “strong bilateral friendship and brotherhood” between the two countries, with “positive” outcomes noted in political, economic, and transportation ties.
