VICTORY DESERVES AZERBAIJAN!

10 Dec 2020

Today, on December 10, the Victory Parade dedicated to the great Victory of Azerbaijan in the Patriotic War was held in the Freedom Square of Baku! In fact, this parade can be called a demonstration to the whole world that justice prevails at all times and in all circumstances.

Of course, if this justice is backed by a wise and determined Supreme Commander-in-Chief like the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, Mr. Ilham Aliyev, and a powerful army like the victorious Azerbaijani Army.
Over the past 30 years, Azerbaijan has tried all possible means to secure its eternal rights, liberate its historical lands from occupation and restore its territorial integrity peacefully. Over the years, all the options offered by the most authoritative international organizations, the most influential countries in the world have been considered. Mediators were appointed and discussions were held. However, in the end, it became clear that all these attempts were aimed at freezing the conflict until Azerbaijan reconciles with the fact of occupation of its territories, and ultimately to create a second Armenian state in the historical lands of Azerbaijan. But the masterminds of this treacherous plan had to realize that they were on the wrong track from the beginning. Because, from the first day of coming to power, President Ilham Aliyev openly and unequivocally stated that Azerbaijan will never reconcile with the occupation of its territories and we will liberate our lands by any means.
Also, for 30 years, all influential international organizations have claimed that there is no military solution to the artificially created Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. On the one hand, this claim was a message that Azerbaijan would never be allowed to launch military operations, but at the same time it was a show of support for the Armenian aggression. But the pro-Armenian forces that authored this claim were still wrong. The President of Azerbaijan has always said that there is an option to resolve the conflict by military means, and if necessary, we will liberate our territories from occupation in this way. Since 1993, especially during the last 17 years, intensive work has been done to ensure the full advantage of Azerbaijan in all areas, including economic, political and diplomatic, and all necessary measures have been taken. Of course, in order to achieve military superiority, the head of state paid special attention to building a modern, strong army, and unprecedented achievements have been made in this direction. By the end of the first decade of the 21st century, Azerbaijan was already the undisputed leader in the South Caucasus region.
However, the military-political leadership of Armenia could not understand these realities and thus prepared for its downfall. On September 27, 2020, in response to another provocation committed by Armenians, Azerbaijan launched military operations to force the enemy to peace. The victory march of the glorious Azerbaijani Army, which lasted only 44 days, opened everyone's eyes and brought them to their senses. The whole world saw that Azerbaijan did not really reconcile with the occupation of its territories. The whole world believed that there was indeed a military solution to the conflict. And the whole world knew that the President of Azerbaijan, Mr. Ilham Aliyev, who for many years voiced these views only from prestigious seats, has the unwavering determination and invincible will to pass these truths on the battlefield and accept them at the right time!
Today's Victory Parade in Baku's Freedom Square was another demonstration of the Azerbaijani-Turkish brotherhood. The participation of the President of the Republic of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdogan and his wife Emine Erdogan in the Victory Parade together with the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev and First Lady Mehriban Aliyeva once again confirmed the eternal and unshakable brotherhood.
Admittedly, the display of military equipment seized as booty in a military parade in any country is perhaps very rare so far. But this was one of the main features of the Victory Parade in honor of the Victory of Azerbaijan. During the parade, more than 3,000 personnel, about 150 military equipment, including newly adopted modern military equipment, missiles and artillery, air defense systems, as well as warships and boats demonstrated the strength of the Glorious Azerbaijani Army. The demonstration of some of the military booty seized from the enemy was a clear proof of the defeat of the occupying Armenian army.
Yes, now we are a real winner! We have a mighty Army and a victorious Supreme Commander-in-Chief who leads this army to glorious victories!
Azerbaijan deserves victory! Long live Azerbaijan!
