Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said he will pay his first visit in the capacity of president to Azerbaijan as he addressed a gathering marking the 13th anniversary of the founding of ruling AK Party.
In his congratulatory message to the Turkish President-elect, Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev invited Mr. Tayyip Erdogan to visit the country.
Turkish Presidents have traditionally paid their first visits to Azerbaijan since the country regained its independence.
