At the event, the Consul General of Turkiye in Nakhchivan, Asip

Azerbaijani President's authorized representative to Nakhchivan
Fuad Najafli said that it was a great pleasure to celebrate the
glorious victory of the Turkish people together, and congratulated
the brotherly Turkish people.
He emphasized that this glorious victory was a fundamental
turning point on the path to independence of the great Turkish
state, and declared the indomitable will, invincibility, struggle,
and determination of the brotherly people to the whole world.
Honoring the memory of Azerbaijani and Turkish martyrs, the
authorized representative emphasized that our brotherly and
friendly relations were continued by Presidents Ilham Aliyev and
Recep Tayyip Erdogan and reached high heights.
He noted that Azerbaijan-Turkiye relations not only express the
unity and equality of our peoples but also guarantee peace and
tranquility in the region. The Bridge of Hope embodies not only our
geographical unity but also our one-nation, two-state relations.
The Zangazur corridor, which will be realized in the future, will
play an important role in the wider and efficient use of energy and
transport-transit opportunities of Nakhchivan by strengthening
these connections. The construction of the Igdir-Nakhchivan gas
pipeline, which was laid in Nakhchivan with the participation of
our heads of state, is also of great importance in this sense.
At the end, a video about the glorious military history of
Turkiye prepared by the Ministry of National Defense of the
Republic of Turkey was shown.
