The Kremlin said during a two-day state visit to the South Caucasus country, Putin is due to hold talks with Aliyev on bilateral relations and "international and regional problems". Aliyev and Putin will sign joint documents and make statements to the press on Monday. Putin will also lay a wreath on the tomb of Heydar Aliyev, father of the current leader, who was president from 1993 to 2003.
