June 26 – Day of the Armed Forces of Azerbaijan, we celebrate with pride and gratitude. This special day embodies the realization of our dreams and hopes, our desire for justice and freedom. Today, we pay our respects to the brave and victorious Azerbaijani Army, which has become a symbol of the strength and courage of our people.

For more than 30 years, we dreamed of a powerful army that would liberate our lands from occupation, take revenge for the spilled blood of innocent peaceful residents of Azerbaijan, give us a sense of pride and dignity, and return the original owners to their lands. Finally, this dream of ours came true in 2023 thanks to the sacrifice and bravery of our heroic soldiers.

The political will, determination, and wisdom of the Commander-in-Chief of the Azerbaijan Armed Forces, based on the absolute faith of our people in their leader, unwavering unity around him, and complete trust in the measured decisions and steps taken by him, as well as the dedication and courage of the Azerbaijani military, played an important role in achieving a crushing victory over the invaders.
Today, the Azerbaijani Army is victorious, an army that has restored historical justice. He won the love and respect of his people and proved that it was impossible to break and subjugate Azerbaijan. Our soldiers and officers risk their lives and do everything to prevent the recurrence of the tragedies that befell our compatriots, the multi-ethnic people of Azerbaijan.

We are proud of our army, which has become the guarantor of peace and stability in the region, in addition to protecting our people. We are grateful to our servicemen for their bravery and courage and for being ready to defend the Motherland to the last drop of blood.

On this significant day, we bow before the spirit of our martyrs, and the skill and bravery of our compatriots who died for the freedom and independence of Azerbaijan. Their sacrifice will never be forgotten, their heroism will live forever in the hearts of our people!
Happy holiday, dear compatriots! May our army always be strong and invincible, and our people united and indomitable!

The brave army of Azerbaijan is truly loved and respected by the people. Love our Armed Forces!

Best wishes to the victorious Commander-in-Chief of the Azerbaijan Armed Forces, Mr. Ilham Aliyev!
