Trump invites Azerbaijan's President Aliyev to G20 Leaders Summit in Miami

Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev has been invited by US President Donald Trump to the G20 Leaders Summit in Miami on December 14-15, according to AZERTAC. Azerbaijan is not a G20 member, and the outlet's commentary says the personal invitation from the US head of state reflects the country's growing international weight and geopolitical importance.

The article points to the G20's role in global economy, financial stability and energy security, and to Azerbaijan's position as a link between Europe and Asia. It recalls the August 8 meeting between Aliyev and Trump in Washington last year, and a phone call on August 8 this year, in which Aliyev thanked Trump for the invitation. It also cites the Southern Gas Corridor, the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan pipeline and the TRIPP project.

The author says that turning the invitation into concrete economic results will depend on talks and diplomatic contacts during the summit and afterward.
