The memory of the martyrs is always with us!

September 27, 2020, is a glorious date for the independent Republic of Azerbaijan. In response to the next military provocation of the occupying Armenia, the Supreme Commander-in-Chief ordered our heroic Army to launch a counterattack.

Every armed conflict means death, bloodshed, and pain. But our people, whose lands are under enemy occupation, welcomed this decision, I would say, with joy. Our patriotic youth flocked to the military mobilization offices. Everyone, young and old, armed, was eager to join the army and take part in the holy war.

We have won this war – the 44-day Patriotic War: thanks to the wise and decisive military-political, diplomatic steps of President Ilham Aliyev, the unity of our people, the strength of our army, the unparalleled courage of our martyrs, veterans, and heroic soldiers, Victory has become ours!

Now September 27 is the Day of Remembrance of our martyrs who lost their lives in the Great Patriotic War.

I wish them God’s mercy and patience for their families!

Long live Azerbaijan!
