Azerbaijan completes accession process to D-8 organization

On Thursday, March 19, 2025, Azerbaijan formally submitted the instruments of ratification of the D-8 Charter to the Secretariat of the Developing - 8 Organization for Economic Cooperation (D-8) in Istanbul, thus becoming a full member of the D-8 Organization.

Report informs, citing the press release of the organization that the 11th Summit of the Heads of State and Government of the D-8 Member States had unanimously accepted Azerbaijan's application to become a member of the D-8 during their meeting held in Cairo, Egypt, on December 19, 2024.

The Summit's decision has prompted Azerbaijan to ratify the D-8 Charter as a prerequisite to become a full member of the organization. The D-8 Charter ratification process by the Government of Azerbaijan was also marked by its Parliament adopting Law No.149-VIIQ on March 7, 2025, and its subsequent signing by the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, Ilham Aliyev, thus putting the law into effect.

No doubt, Azerbaijan's accession as the ninth member of the D-8 is a milestone for the organization, as this development will open broader opportunities and strengthen collaboration among its member states to achieve the objectives and goals as mandated by its Charter.
