As is known, on May 20 this year, with the participation of President Ilham Aliyev, discussions were held at the Nizami Ganjavi International Center in a video format entitled "South Caucasus: Regional Development and Prospects for Cooperation." I read the materials of this prestigious event with great interest and, as an intellectual and patriotic person, I was very pleased with the discussions held here.

It should be noted that the bright, profound speech of President Ilham Aliyev at the event created conditions for the discussions to continue in a deep and interesting way. First of all, the head of state noted that the Nizami Ganjavi International Center had become one of the world's leading international institutions during its eight years of operation.

Yes, the center serves the cause of peace, cooperation, security and stability in the world with its purposeful and wide-ranging activities. Its members are world-renowned politicians who have led their countries or international organizations for many years. Their experiences are truly unique. Gathering such a rich experience is a rare event in the world.

The topic raised by the Nizami Ganjavi International Center for this discussion is extremely relevant. It is no coincidence that the President of Azerbaijan said about the importance of the topic: "I appreciate the discussion on" South Caucasus: Regional Development and Prospects for Cooperation, "because we need it. Due to the fact that the occupation lasted for almost 30 years, Azerbaijan has unequivocally stated its position that we will not cooperate with Armenia until the territories are liberated. I think that Armenia itself understands that they made a big mistake. "

Today, new realities have emerged in the South Caucasus region. Restoring its territorial integrity in the 44-day war, Azerbaijan is working to establish peace and justice in the region and around the world. The progress and prosperity of the peoples of the South Caucasus depend only on just peace, tolerance and dialogue. Unfortunately, the revanchist forces in Armenia still do not understand or do not want to understand this. Of course, they make a big mistake. The sooner they stop their evil deeds, the more opportunities there will be for lasting peace in the region.

Speakers at the event praised the activities of the Nizami Ganjavi International Center and voiced valuable views on the topic under discussion. They are confident that the center will continue to strive to convey the legacy of the great thinker Nizami and the rich culture of Azerbaijan to the world, thereby contributing to peace and justice in the region and around the world.

Azerbaijan is a forward-looking country. President Ilham Aliyev emphasized this idea at the event: “We must now look to the future. Despite 30 years of occupation, large-scale destruction in the liberated territories and their destruction, Azerbaijan is ready to look to the future and plan its future as part of a single integrated South Caucasus region. We hope that the time will come and we will literally talk about active cooperation and integration in the South Caucasus. "

Yes, the Azerbaijani state, which prefers civil, democratic, human and multicultural values ​​in its domestic and foreign policy, has become one of the most influential and powerful states in the world under the wise leadership of President Ilham Aliyev.
