Greeting the guest, President Ilham Aliyev said:

- Dear Madam President, welcome. I am very glad to see you in Azerbaijan. This is your first visit to our country. I am sure that the visit will be very successful and we will have very interesting discussions, because relations between our countries develop very successfully and cover many areas. I am also sure that your visit will play an important role in strengthening of these ties and deepening of our political dialogue and economic relations. Of course, we will discuss also several other issues of regional importance. I am confident that we will obtain successful results. Once again, welcome to Azerbaijan and I hope that your stay in our country will be pleasant.

Thanking our head of state, President of Lithuania Dalia Grybauskaitė said:

- I am very thankful for your invitation. Several months ago when talking to you, I decided to visit Azerbaijan as the head of state of a country, chairing the OSCE. Of course, the talk was about regional issues in this respect. Taking into account our good bilateral economic relations, there are many issues and work to be discussed.

We can benefit from the talks you had with Europe, the contributions made via Twinning project and exchange the experience in conducting talks. We are open to share our experience with you.

Thank you.
