PRESIDENT ILHAM ALIYEV: "We successfully conducted our policy in the economic field this year"

One of the main factors that ensure successful management is the provision of information and reports to the public about the government's own activities and targeted issues. In this regard, on December 31, 2023, the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, Ilham Aliyev, addressed the people of Azerbaijan on the occasion of the Day of Solidarity of World Azerbaijanis and the New Year. gave extensive information about the issues of interest to the Azerbaijani public about the works planned to be carried out during the year. In his address to the nation, President Ilham Aliyev stated that this year, as always, Azerbaijan has achieved great success in the economic field: "We have successfully conducted our policy in the economic field this year. An independent economy allows us not to depend on anyone, on any international financial institution. and we are not dependent".

SUCCESSFUL SOCIO-ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL ACHIEVEMENTS OF A POWERFUL STATE

Thus, in the last 20 years, the concept of "strong state, strong economy and social welfare" of the President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev has included Azerbaijan among the selected countries in the world, as a result of which we are developing successfully. President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev has repeatedly emphasized in his speeches that the achieved successes have no equal in the world. Yes, indeed, this is an undeniable axiom. It is no coincidence that our country has become a leading state in the region due to the rate of economic development. The independent policy pursued by the government of Azerbaijan has always been unambiguous:

"Strong state, strong economy and social welfare. Look, the unity of these principles has today included Azerbaijan among the selected countries in the world. As a result, we are developing successfully." "True politics is to do concrete, real work," said President Ilham Aliyev, as a result of purposeful activity, extremely important steps are being taken towards the transformation of Azerbaijan into a powerful state. "Our goal is to build an economically strong, politically independent state" - these words of the head of the country are the main line on the policy.

It is precisely in our economically strong country that major construction works are being carried out in our lands since the liberation from occupation. President Ilham Aliyev said in his address to the people of Azerbaijan on the occasion of the World Azerbaijani Solidarity Day and the New Year that Karabakh and East Zangezur have become a big construction site today: "We are rebuilding our cities and villages, and this year nearly 5,000 former displaced people have returned to their native lands. In March, on the eve of Nowruz holiday, there was festive joy in the village of Talish, the settlers returned to their native homes. In August, the city of Fuzuli and the village of Zabukh were celebrating. This year, the settlers returned to the city of Lachin while celebrating the Independence Day - on May 28, it was a big holiday in Lachin. Before that, as you know, settlers settled in the village of Agali, and thus life has been restored in five settlements."

"WE ARE RIGHT, THE POWER IS ON OUR SIDE, TIME STRENGTHENS OUR POSITION, AND INTERNATIONAL LAW TOO"

In short, the past three years since our victory have shown once again that power is on our side, time also strengthens our position, and international law as well. The world community already unequivocally recognizes Karabakh as an integral part of Azerbaijan. President Ilham Aliyev, in his address to the people of Azerbaijan on the occasion of the Day of Solidarity of World Azerbaijanis and the New Year, said that large-scale construction works are being carried out in Karabakh and East Zangezur today, and that soon our compatriots who were displaced from their homelands will return to their ancestral lands: , the refugees will return. I want to give them this good news today and I want to inform them that during the year the villages of Karkijahan, Malibeyli, Turshsu will be completely restored and will be given to the disposal of the former settlers. At the same time, the residents of Khojaly and Khankendi will also return to their homes during the year.

In addition, several settlements will be ready to receive former settlers. We are the owners of these lands. We are a nation of builders."

WE ARE THE OWNERS OF THESE LANDS - THE PEOPLE OF AZERBAIJAN

Yes, because the owner of these lands is the Azerbaijani people, we regained our rights, justice, and territorial integrity and got our own lands.

The realities of our historical Victory made the adoption of new State programs a necessity. The perspectives envisaged in "Azerbaijan 2030: National Priorities for socio-economic development" are being realized. The goal of the National Priorities is to accelerate the implementation of political, economic, and social reforms in our country, to achieve stable macroeconomic stability, a gradual solution to the Great Return, and to further improve the lifestyle of the population. As a result, the safe living of the people returning to the territories freed from occupation should be ensured, and the historical position of Karabakh and Eastern Zangezur economic zones in the economic and social face of the country should be restored.

The most important factor emphasized in this area is increasing attention to the application of environmentally friendly "green technologies" for the formation of a healthy lifestyle of people. Based on the scientific and technical potential, the share of alternative and renewable energy sources in primary consumption should be increased in all areas of the economy and the impact on climate change should be reduced. Using environmentally friendly vehicles will have a positive impact on the environment and air quality. The mentioned National Priorities are also of particular importance in the direction of the implementation of the obligations arising from the "Transformation of our world: Agenda for sustainable development until 2030" adopted by the United Nations Organization.

The whole world is already seeing that reconstruction works are accelerating in the territories destroyed by Armenian savages, Karabakh and East Zangezur are reviving, people are returning to their native places. Within the framework of the "smart city" and "smart village" projects presented by Azerbaijan to the world, all necessary facilities for the comfortable living of the residents have been created in our lands, which are being restored and rebuilt. It is a matter of pride that the 30-year longing for land has ended, and that there is prosperity in these places.

One of the important successes of the last three years, one of the triumphal pages of our history, was the establishment of a checkpoint on the Azerbaijan-Armenia border on April 23, 2023. With this important step, Azerbaijan fully restored its territorial integrity.

In his address to the nation, President Ilham Aliyev once again warned both Armenia and the patrons of Armenians in the West: "Today, double standards prevail in the West. The people of Azerbaijan know this well, and at the same time, they know well that we will respond to all pressures, all threats, baseless we will do what we know despite the accusations. The Armenian leadership should also draw conclusions from these historical lessons and behave in such a way as not to incur our anger."

Yes, the President of Azerbaijan never expresses an opinion without an argument. All his statements are based on the factor of real military-political and economic power, and the head of state himself declared this openly. "An independent economy allows us not to depend on anyone, on any international financial institution, and we are not."

Regarding those who do not want to come to terms with these realities, the position of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief was clear, "I want to assure all Azerbaijanis of the world that the "Iron Fist" will always be in place."

"WE ARE RIGHT, THE POWER IS ON OUR SIDE, TIME STRENGTHENS OUR POSITION, AND INTERNATIONAL LAW TOO" In short, the past three years since our victory have shown once again that power is on our side, time also strengthens our position, and international law as well. The world community already unequivocally recognizes Karabakh as an integral part of Azerbaijan. President Ilham Aliyev, in his address to the people of Azerbaijan on the occasion of the Day of Solidarity of World Azerbaijanis and the New Year, said that large-scale construction works are being carried out in Karabakh and East Zangezur today, and that soon our compatriots who were displaced from their homelands will return to their ancestral lands: , the refugees will return.
