Maria Zakharova to Vestnik Kavkaza: there is no limit to perfection in Russian-Azerbaijani relations

The Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson, Maria Zakharova, positively commended on the Russian-Azerbaijani contacts, answering a question of Vestnik Kavkaza about how the Russian Federation sees its ties with Azerbaijan.

The correspondent cited the Ambassador Polad Bulbuloglu, who said that the relations between the two countries reached the highest point of development.

"It's difficult to say whether the current stage is the highest point. I think that I could really agree with Mr. Bulbuloglu's positive assessment of the development of bilateral relations. But it seems to me that there is no limit to perfection," she stressed.

Maria Zakharova also answered another question about wishes to Russian diplomats in connection with the coming Day of the diplomatic worker. "At least one day of complete peace in the world would be the best gift for Russian diplomats. My wish would be like this, and if time was not limited, then I wish that peace would last forever," she said.

"Recently, we have seen a lot of times when the international community was on the verge. We see how easily wars without any prepositions start, how difficult to reach at least the starting position through the years, through many sacrifices, difficulties and obstacles, let alone achieve something better. We're all used to take peace for granted, but in fact we all have to understand that the state of peace should be protected," Maria Zakharova stressed.

"The state of peace is a man-made thing, it depends on politicians and leaders of the countries, and of course, on the people themselves, as well as the media. Therefore, awareness of hand-made state of peace is a very important process. Due to which, I wish all employees of the diplomatic service peace," the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry concluded.
