BAKU, Azerbaijan, May 28. Footage of President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev's
meeting with residents of Boyuk Galaderesi village of the Shusha
district has been posted on his social media pages, Trend reports.
"If the National Leader Heydar Aliyev had not come to power at
that time, it is difficult to say what the fate of our people and
our state would be now. In any case, at that time, Azerbaijan was
facing a great disaster. At that time, the war was stopped, a step
was taken towards development, and strength was gathered. During my
time, we longed for the day of freedom every day and brought it
closer every day. You, as well as the people who lived in these
areas, know very well how difficult the terrain is both here and in
Lachin, Kalbajar, Fuzuli, Jabrayil; there were seven lines of
defense and mines there. Our heroic children, putting their chests
forward and sacrificing themselves, broke through those lines, and
in just 44 days, we forced Armenia to sign an act of capitulation.
There has never been such an absolute Victory either before or
after that," the post reads.
