Azerbaijan has engaged in various bilateral efforts to strengthen international cooperation in specialized fields.

In late September, Azerbaijani officials expressed interest in expanding forensic science cooperation with Turkey. During a congress in Antalya, representatives from the Azerbaijan Ministry of Justice Forensic Sciences Center highlighted the importance of leveraging the expertise of the Turkish Forensic Medicine Institute and launching new projects within the framework of the Organization of Turkic States.

By mid-October, Azerbaijan shifted focus toward law enforcement and security cooperation with Iran. Azerbaijani Minister of Internal Affairs Vilayət Eyvazov met with an Iranian delegation in Baku to discuss combating transnational organized crime, including illegal drug trafficking, terrorism, human trafficking, illegal migration, and cybercrime. Both nations expressed a commitment to exchanging information and experience to improve regional security.
