“Azerbaijan is an ally and strategic partner to the United States and is one of the fastest growing economies in its region.  Given San Antonio’s role as a rapidly growing city with an unlimited export potential, there is vast opportunity to strengthen South Texas’s relationship with Azerbaijan,” said Congressman Cuellar.  “Today was a great opportunity for students at University of the Incarnate Word to learn more about a vital and growing part of the world and I thank the University for hosting the event.   I look forward to seeing the continued development of Azerbaijan and the strengthening of our bilateral relationship.”
