With a population that makes up 60% of the world's Muslims, the D-8 plays a significant role in Islamic solidarity, Prime Minister of Azerbaijan Ali Asadov said at the 11th D-8 Summit in Cairo, APA reports.

The Prime Minister emphasized that, in an era where Islamophobia, extremism, and radicalism are on the rise, it is crucial to unite efforts within the organization to strengthen Islamic solidarity: "Throughout history, Azerbaijan has played the role of a bridge between the East and the West and has been one of the cultural, religious, and civilization centers of the Islamic world. Our country has made significant contributions to the formation of a multicultural and tolerant environment, the establishment of intercultural dialogue, and the promotion of Islamic values worldwide."
