BAKU, Azerbaijan, November 5 . Azerbaijan's Parliament has made a statement on the occasion of November 8 – Victory Day, reports.

The Parliament Chairperson Sahiba Gafarova said at the parliamentary session that Azerbaijan's victory in the 2020 Second Karabakh War was the result of the might of the armed forces under the leadership of Victorious Supreme Commander-in-Chief, President Ilham Aliyev.

According to the statement, Victory Day is one of the most significant historical pages of Azerbaijan. The path to the great victory was not easy. As a result of the Armenian aggression, over one million Azerbaijanis became refugees and internally displaced persons. The fate of nearly 4,000 compatriots who went missing during the first Karabakh War remains unknown.

During the occupation period, Armenian vandals destroyed all the Azerbaijani cities and villages, and historical and cultural monuments. Armenia still continues to pursue a landmine terrorism policy against Azerbaijan. However, all this could not break the Azerbaijani people's will. Great leader Heydar Aliyev's successor President Ilham Aliyev has turned Azerbaijan into a powerful state. The country has managed to liberate its lands thanks to the strength of the mighty Azerbaijani Army.

As the statement noted, Azerbaijan's domestic and foreign policy is based on the interests and needs of the country's people. The trilateral statement of November 10, 2020 put an end to the Karabakh conflict. Azerbaijan is engaged in reconstruction activities in Karabakh and Eastern Zangazur. The country builds roads, bridges, and tunnels, as well as prepares for the opening of the Zangazur corridor. All this will ensure the further strengthening of Azerbaijan.

The Azerbaijani Parliament urges Armenia to evaluate the current historic opportunity. It has noted that peace efforts to be based on Azerbaijan's five principles will contribute to the soonest signing of a peace agreement.
