(MENAFN- Trend News Agency) BAKU, Azerbaijan, November 6. November 8 marks
Azerbaijan's historic victory in the 2020 second Karabakh war,
reports.
On September 27, 2020, Azerbaijan launched a counter-offensive
operation in response to large-scale provocations of the Armenian
armed forces on the front line. The unity of the Azerbaijani
people, government, and army during the war brought the enemy to
its knees. Thanks to the decisive policy of President, Supreme
Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces Ilham Aliyev, the united
Azerbaijani people crushed the myth of the Armenian army's
'invincibility' and insurmountable 'Ohanyan line', thus showing its
strength to everyone. After seeing the power of the Azerbaijani
Army, Armenian soldiers left behind not only weapons and military
equipment but also the bodies of their comrades in arms.
This brilliant victory was a triumph of the Azerbaijani people's
solidarity, the economic power of independent Azerbaijan, heroism,
fearlessness, and determination of the sons of Azerbaijan. From now
on, for centuries the whole world will talk about the heroism of
Azerbaijani soldiers.
As CEO of Caspian Group Holding Rob Sobhani told on Sunday,
Azerbaijan's victory in the second Karabakh War is the result of a
decisive and balanced policy of President Ilham Aliyev.
In his opinion, the anniversary of Karabakh's liberation from
the Armenian occupation is a remarkable reminder of how the wise
and strong actions of President Ilham Aliyev changed the history of
Azerbaijan and the entire region for the better.
“We should look into the sound decision of Azerbaijani President
Ilham Aliyev to liberate Karabakh in the context of his initial
desire to resolve the conflict with Armenia peacefully. When
Armenia refused to leave the occupied territories, and the Western
powers couldn't force Armenia to agree to peace, and when on
September 27, 2020 they once again committed a provocation against
Azerbaijan, President Ilham Aliyev made a historic decision to
liberate Karabakh in the Azerbaijani people's interest,” he
said.
Sobhani underscored President Ilham Aliyev's great wisdom and
confidence in the use of modern technologies in the efforts to
liberate Karabakh.
Furthermore, Senior Research Fellow at the Canadian Global
Affairs Institute Robert Cutler noted that Azerbaijan's victory in
the second Karabakh war marked the beginning of major changes in
the South Caucasus.
“On the second anniversary of the end of the 44-day war, one can
say that Azerbaijan's victory paved the way for radical changes in
the South Caucasus. Nevertheless, Armenia continued to complicate
the already difficult situation in the region,” he said.
According to Cutler, the most constructive policy for Western
states would be to take specific steps to make Armenia sign a
comprehensive peace treaty with Azerbaijan.
November 8, 2020 became the date of irreversible changes for the
entire South Caucasus, thereby bringing only peace, stability,
predictability and development to the region.
The new regional realities offered new opportunities for both
Azerbaijan and other countries of the South Caucasus and even
Armenia. The thirty-year conflict and occupation of Azerbaijani
territories is now transformed into the period of cooperation and
prospects. Along with fulfilling the historic mission to liberate
Karabakh, Victorious Supreme Commander-in-Chief, President Ilham
Aliyev literally revived economic, transport and other ties in the
South Caucasus.
As for Azerbaijan, the personality of President Ilham Aliyev,
around whom millions of Azerbaijanis worldwide united, played a
decisive role in Azerbaijan's gorgeous victory. The Azerbaijani
president has formed the basis for further success – a stable and
developing economy was established, the country's armed forces were
deeply modernized, and Azerbaijan's image in the international
arena significantly increased. All these became the key factor
leading to the victory of Azerbaijan.
