The Chairman of the State Committee on Work with Diaspora, Fuad Muradov, met with a delegation led by Kamil Salduz, Chairman of the Kars Education and Culture Foundation.
Welcoming the guests, the chairman wished success to the newly established foundation and stated that the committee would provide the necessary support. He also praised the gathering of Azerbaijani-origin Turkish citizens from the Eastern Anatolia region as commendable.
Kamil Salduz thanked for the warm reception. He noted that most of the founders and trustees of the foundation, which began operations on October 19, 2025, as announced in Turkey’s “Official Gazette,” are originally from Kars. He added that the “Kars Friendship Group,” which forms the foundation’s core, has organized many cultural programs to date. He recalled that in 2023, with the support of the State Committee on Work with Diaspora and the Embassy of Azerbaijan in Turkey, large-scale concerts dedicated to May 28 – Independence Day were held in Ankara and Istanbul.
