ZANGILAN, Azerbaijan,
August 2. Azerbaijan's diaspora youth
participating in the Seventh Summer Camp for Diaspora Youth will
help promote the truth about the country to the international
community, while the experience they gain during the camp will
contribute to their future activities, Masim Mammadov, the Special
Representative of the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan in
the Lachin district said, Trend's correspondent reports from the event.
He made the remark during the opening ceremony of the Seventh
Summer Camp for Diaspora Youth in Zangilan.
Mammadov noted that the summer camps for diaspora youth have
become a well-established tradition, with this year's event being
held for the seventh time. "The summer camp held in Lachin two
years ago was a valuable experience for us. It showed us how
strongly Azerbaijani youth living around the world are connected to
their homeland and how great their interest in Azerbaijan is," he
said.
He expressed confidence that participants would be able to apply
the knowledge and experience gained during the camp in their future
endeavors. "I hope that after this event you will become not only
advocates of the truth about Azerbaijan, but that the friendships
you build and the experience you gain here will also have a
positive impact on your future careers," Mammadov added.
The presidential representative stressed that the reconstruction
and redevelopment of Karabakh and Eastern Zangezur are being
carried out under a unique model unparalleled in scale.
According to him, the construction of international airports,
highways, tunnels, bridges, reservoirs, and other major
infrastructure facilities is laying the foundation for the region's
future economic development. "These projects are creating the
region's economic potential. A solid foundation is being
established for the development of logistics, agriculture,
construction, and other sectors," Mammadov said.
He also noted that all districts of Karabakh complement one
another within a unified development model, with the resources of
each district contributing to the implementation of a common
development strategy.
Mammadov added that Lachin's abundant water resources support
agricultural development across other parts of the region, while
electricity generated by its hydropower plants will, in the future,
make a significant contribution not only to the region's energy
supply but also to the country's overall power system.
The presidential representative emphasized that training highly
qualified professionals is one of the key priorities for the
sustainable development of Karabakh. "Managing these territories
with modern technologies in the future will require educated,
professional, and highly skilled specialists. I am confident that
some of the young people here today will make their contribution to
this process," he said.
In conclusion, Mammadov encouraged the diaspora youth to use
their time at the summer camp to learn as much as possible about
the reconstruction efforts underway in Karabakh and to ask any
questions they may have. "Make the most of these days, learn as
much as you can about Karabakh, and objectively share with the
people in your countries what you have seen here," he added.
