"In fact, Azerbaijan is one of the only Muslim countries in the world where Jewish life has always been safe and respected. Their President publicly praises Israel, and they understand that Israel is not fighting Muslims but rather extremism. It’s a strategic bond between two tough nations who’ve been through fire, and refused to burn," Hananya Naftali, a well-known Israeli speaker, social media and human rights activist, wrote on his personal website.

"Israel is actively trying to expand the Abraham Accords and make peace with more Muslim countries in the Middle East. Azerbaijan can potentially play an important role with opening doors for peace," Naftali added.
