Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev has approved a protocol providing financial assistance to the Palestinian Embassy in Azerbaijan.
The decree approving the protocol was published on the Azerbaijani presidency’s official website on Monday.
The protocol was signed in Baku on July 10, 2026. Once it enters into force, Azerbaijan’s Cabinet of Ministers will take the necessary steps to implement its provisions.
The foreign ministry was instructed to notify the Palestinian government that Azerbaijan had completed the domestic procedures required for the agreement to take effect.
The move follows Aliyev’s July 16 meeting with Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammad Mustafa, during which the Azerbaijani president reaffirmed Baku’s support for the establishment of an independent and sovereign State of Palestine with East Jerusalem as its capital.
