Ilham Aliyev: Forms of threats to global security becoming more complex, dangerous

President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyevhas addressed a message to the participants of the meeting of the Council of Interior Ministers of the CIS countries that is underway in Baku.

In his message, President Aliyev greeted the participants of the meeting of the CIS Council of Interior Ministers and wished them success.

The head of state noted that the cooperation carried out in this format for more than 25 years is a vivid example of the effectiveness of collective struggle against the challenges and threats posed by international terrorism and other forms of transnational organized crime in modern times.

“In recent years, the CIS Council of Interior Ministers has carried out a series of activities aimed at ensuring public security and combating crime. Thanks to these activities, the potential for cooperation, the effectiveness of information exchange and join activities have significantly increased,” he said.   

President Aliyev stressed that in the modern world, threats to the security of separate countries, regions and the world continue to grow.

“The forms and methods of threats to global security are becoming more complex and dangerous. In this regard, law enforcement agencies must always be ready to take preventive measures and adequately respond to the situation. In these issues, relations with relevant international bodies, and especially with the International Criminal Police Organization – Interpol, which successfully cooperates with Azerbaijan, are of great importance. We highly appreciate this prestigious international organization’s informational and technical support for providing national and international security,” he said.

“It is remarkable that the current meeting of the Council of Ministers of Internal Affairs coincided with the 100th anniversary of the Azerbaijan Democratic Republic and the Azerbaijani police,” the head of state added.

President Aliyev stressed that today Azerbaijan is developing as a strong, independent, democratic and legal state, in accordance with the policy founded by national leader Heydar Aliyev.

“Interior bodies significantly contribute to ensuring security and legality in the country, seriously fight against international terrorism and religious extremism. In this regard, strengthening of cooperation with partner organizations of the CIS countries is of great importance. I am confident that fruitful exchange of views within the framework of the meeting of the Council of Ministers of Internal Affairs will give an additional impetus to the further strengthening of the existing cooperation for the sake of the prosperity of our countries,” the president said.
