Azerbaijan

A Joint Communique on the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries was signed in New York on 19 January.

The Joint Communiqué was signed by Permanent Representatives of both countries to the United Nations Yashar Aliyev and Ali'ioaiga Feturi Elisaia.

PACNEWS reports the document expresses the desire of Azerbaijan and Samoa to promote mutual understanding and cooperation between their countries and peoples.

That, at least, is the view of the Azerbaijani ambassador to the United States, who blasted the reality TV star in an interview with Foreign Policy after she appeared to weigh in on behalf of the ethnic Armenians battling Azerbaijan for control of the restive region.
