The diplomat recalled the series of articles highlighting the Great Leader in the press of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the unveiling of a bust of Heydar Aliyev at the embassy, and the publication of a book about Heydar Aliyev in Bosnian.

 

Vilayat Guliyev underlined that on the initiative of AZERTAC, exhibitions were organized in different countries to celebrate the National Leader centenary. The diplomat commended AZERTAC`s role in enhancing Azerbaijan`s global recognition through multilingual news dissemination.
