As EADaily reported, Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev said earlier that Azerbaijan has become completely independent of international financial institutions.

"We suspended relations with the International Monetary Fund during the first period of my presidency. As for other financial institutions, we can say that we have completely stopped our cooperation," Aliyev said, speaking at the Baku at the International Forum on April 9.

The country's external debt, according to him, is "only 5 billion US dollars, which is 7% lower than our gross domestic product."

"This shows that we do not need foreign investments, financing," Aliyev said.
