"We, the participants of the conference "Neocolonialism: Violation of Human Rights and Injustice", held in Baku on October 20, 2023 and organized by the Baku Initiative Group, express our sincere gratitude to the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, Mr. Ilham Aliyev, as Chair of the Non-Aligned Movement, and the people of Azerbaijan for their genuine and friendly hospitality.

As participants of the conference, we appreciate the address of the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, Mr. Ilham Aliyev, and are thankful to His Excellency for his consistent support of our rightful struggle for justice and freedom.

Additionally, we highly appreciate the adherence of the Republic of Azerbaijan to the fundamental principles of the Non-Aligned Movement, the norms and principles of international law, as well as the goals and principles enshrined in the UN Charter.

We applaud the work Azerbajan has been doing during its chairmanship of the Non-Aligned Movement, the initiatives it has put forward and the steps it has taken in the direction of expanding the organization's activities and enhancing its international authority, especially its resolute position on the fight against colonialism:

We welcome the efforts of the Republic of Azerbaijan to create a world order based on a fair international discipline. From this point of view, we appreciate the contribution made by the introduction of the "Baku Process" on decolonization in July 2023 and the authoritative events held within the framework of this process in a short period of time to the effective work on decolonization and to communicating our legitimate voice to the international community.

We are confident that our collective and righteous struggle, as well as the growing demand of the world community in this regard, will result in the adoption of necessary steps related to decolonization and secure our natural rights and freedoms.

We reaffirm the accuracy and relevance of our principled position reflected in the final documents of the events organized by the Baku Initiative Group in Baku in July this year and in New York in September.
