  "summary": "Indian External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar's visit to Baku aims to mend ties between India and Azerbaijan, which have been strained since Azerbaijan supported Pakistan during Operation Sindoor in May 2025. The visit, the first by an Indian foreign minister to Azerbaijan in eight years, comes as both countries seek to revive bilateral engagement. Jaishankar and Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Jeyhun Bayramov held \"very productive\" talks, focusing on expanding economic cooperation in trade, investment, and energy, which are central to their bilateral ties. The two sides also agreed to coordinate more closely on the International North-South Transport Corridor, a connectivity initiative that could benefit India's access to markets across Eurasia. Trade and investment are seen as a practical foundation for rebuilding relations, with bilateral trade reaching $401 million in 2025.",
