According to Azerbaijan State News Agency, Mirzoyev underscored the significance of the Days of Uzbek Culture held in Azerbaijan, illustrating how art and culture serve as rapid connectors between nations. “We are proud of this brotherhood and wish our friendship to remain strong, distances to feel shorter, and our unity and solidarity to endure,” he said, highlighting the enduring nature of this cultural relationship.
