Anti-terrorist activities in Garabagh put a stop to decades-long conflict Statement of the Russian Community of Azerbaijan

The Russian Community of Azerbaijan fully supports the efforts of the country's leadership aimed at the early reintegration of the Armenian population of Garabagh into the multinational Azerbaijani society, the statement of the Russian Community of Azerbaijan says.

"The anti-terrorist measures in Garabagh and the meeting between representatives of the President of Azerbaijan and representatives of Garabagh residents of Armenian origin on September 21, in the town of Yevlakh, put an end to the long-standing conflict. The very next day, at the request of representatives of the Armenian residents of Garabagh, in the context of discussing social and humanitarian issues, 2 trucks with various food and hygiene products, as well as 2 cars with bread were sent along the Aghdam-Khankendi road," the Commuity said, according to Caliber.Az.

"We, the Russian population of Azerbaijan, are confident that the socio-economic reintegration plan for the Armenians of the Garabagh region fully complies with all the rights and norms of the Constitution of the Republic. Azerbaijan is traditionally a multinational, multicultural country, where many ethnic groups live in peace and harmony. Throughout our history, we have always had peace among all the peoples who inhabit our country, regardless of their nationality and religion. Now is the time for peace, development and prosperity for the entire South Caucasus.

Our valiant army, under the leadership of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, President Ilham Aliyev, demonstrated true heroism and patriotism on the battlefield, liberating the Armenian population of Garabagh from the military junta of criminals who had forcibly held power for many years. We will always remember our heroes who gave their lives for the Motherland. Unfortunately, during the anti-terrorist measures we had Martyrs. The Russian community expresses its condolences to the families of the victims and wishes a speedy recovery to the wounded. We also express our condolences to the families of the dead Russian peacekeepers who gave their lives for the establishment of peace in the region and sincerely hope that from now on, peace will be restored forever," the statement reads.
