BAKU, Azerbaijan, January 24. The Davos
Economic Forum, an international forum shaping the world economic
agenda, has concluded. Alongside economic and political dialogues
and the signing of agreements, several key moments during this
gathering drew significant attention.
U.S. President Donald Trump, the leader of the state,
which plays a decisive role in world politics, met face to face
with only two heads of state within the framework of the forum:
President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev and Ukrainian President
Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
This reality alone is considered a bright indicator of the
growing influence of President Ilham Aliyev in the new world
governance. The one-on-one meeting of President Ilham Aliyev with
Donald Trump within the framework of a high-level international
forum attended by dozens of heads of state and government, as well
as leading representatives of the global economic elite, is a clear
indicator of the international political influence, personal
credibility and status of the Azerbaijani head of state as an actor
accepted in the circle of global leaders. This meeting confirms
that President Ilham Aliyev is considered not only a regional
leader, but also a reliable partner with the opportunity to
establish direct contact in global political dialogue.
