Ilham Aliyev: Despite Crisis, We Have Economic Growth
In connection with the Day of Solidarity of the World Azerbaijanis on December 31, the President appealed to the Azerbaijanis of the world.
Despite the ongoing global financial and economic crisis, Azerbaijan in 2015 maintained the momentum of social and economic growth, the statement says.
Implementation of the plans for transportation of rich gas resources to the world market, including the project TANAP, will enhance the role of Azerbaijan in the international arena and open up new prospects for further development and welfare of Azerbaijan.
"Despite the fact that there have been growing military-political conflicts and unrest in different regions of the world in the recent years, socio-political stability has been maintained in Azerbaijan, and the atmosphere of confidence between the government and the people has been further strengthened. The new parliamentary elections conducted in November in democratic and transparent conditions were also a clear manifestation of the optimistic mood in the society and the profound endorsement of the policy by the people. "
Azerbaijan has a strong economy and a strong army, ready at any moment to liberate the land from occupation. "However, in order to prevent a recurrence of bloodshed and to avoid exacerbating tensions in the region, we are committed to a peaceful and just solution to the conflict within the norms of international law," the appeal says.
In conclusion, Aliyev called the Diaspora organizations to actively contribute to the protection of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Azerbaijan. -02D-
