Azerbaijan is advancing plans to transform the Organization of Turkic States (OTS) from a cultural association into a comprehensive strategic alliance. Speaking on Baku’s vision, President Ilham Aliyev emphasized the alignment of political, economic, energy, transport, and security priorities across Eurasian member countries. The framework focuses on synchronizing critical transit routes and energy corridors to deepen economic integration and elevate the international profile of Turkic nations.
