“Today is a day of mourning for anti-Azerbaijan forces. How can it be that Azerbaijan restored its rights without our permission, without asking anyone, without fearing anyone, and without regard for anyone? It was achieved through its own strength and the sacrifices of its children. They cannot forgive us for this,” said President Ilham Aliyev during a meeting with residents in the city of Jabrayil.
The head of state remarked, “Today, sanctions are imposed on Azerbaijan by America. Afterwards, they say, 'Let’s strengthen our friendship.' What kind of friendship can be discussed?” President Ilham Aliyev emphasized that “we must rely solely on our strength and should not be deceived by any promises, sweet words, or false statements.”
