ADA University has hosted an event marking the Day of National Diplomacy.

The event participants included state and government officials, representatives of the diplomatic corps accredited in Baku and MPs.

Rector of ADA University Hafiz Pashayev noted that the Azerbaijani diplomacy, whose history spanned 97 years, had gone through a difficult but glorious path. "The formation of modern diplomacy, of course, is connected with the restoration of independence," he said.

The event then featured a documentary entitled "Strive for Independence" made by the university to mark the 150th anniversary of Alimardan bey Topchubashov.
