On January 5, the primary working day of 2023, Azerbaijani
President Ilham Aliyev stayed loyal to his years-long custom,
and along with First Woman Mehriban Aliyeva commissioned a Youngster
and Youth Improvement Heart in Baku after a serious overhaul and
restoration.
It is a excellent omen for months to come back as each Baku,
districts, specifically, the Karabakh financial area will see
a whole bunch of meters of purple ribbon to be lower in 2023 with grand
tasks within the pipeline.
As we finish the yr, now’s the right time to replicate on the
accomplishments of the previous yr and make makes an attempt at our
expectations from the brand new yr. In essence, Azerbaijan with its
highly effective navy forces on alert, thriving financial system, oil and gasoline
income, and promising new inexperienced power tasks, to call a number of, is
advancing confidently to 2023.
The yr 2022 turned out profitable for Azerbaijan for bold
brownfield tasks within the liberated Karabakh, and 2023 will
witness main nationwide milestone mega-buck building plans
starting from faculties to new trendy roads, energy stations,
rebuilding of villages, districts, and cities razed to the bottom
throughout Armenia’s 30-year-long scorched earth coverage. It’s past
any doubt that challenges are at all times there and so they might be
surmountable supplied with a transparent imaginative and prescient.
In 2022, Azerbaijan has additional cemented its historic victory
gained on the battlefields in 2020. On a political dimension,
Azerbaijan’s diplomatic positive factors proved to be substantial regardless of
Armenia’s stonewalling to keep away from signing a peace deal. Nevertheless, the
unfolding developments button down that Armenia has way back
reached an deadlock, and efforts to beat the cul-de-sac with the
backing of worldwide patrons yield no outcomes and has to
consent to the phrases of the November 10, 2020, peace deal and honor
the unaccomplished gadgets, certainly one of them being the Zangazur hall
to unite the exclave Nakhchivan with the mainland Azerbaijan.
In 2022, on the conferences in Prague and Sochi, Armenia formally
acknowledged Azerbaijan’s territorial integrity and sovereignty.
However the truth that Armenia held again the signing of a
peace accord for 2 years now, the newest diplomatic fiasco on the
UN in live performance with France in addition to earlier ones was a wake-up
name for Yerevan to brace itself for the worst to come back and that
frightening Baku to navy operations would bode in poor health for it. The
disastrous final result of the France-initiated UN invoice on the final day
of 2022 laid naked and watered down Armenia’s plans and dependence
on international advocates to breathe down Baku’s neck with out realizing
that it’s a pawn in a political recreation.
All through the independence interval, one of many main instructions
of Azerbaijan’s international coverage was, is, and will certainly be
growing the variety of buddies worldwide, and the interval when
Azerbaijan waged a holy conflict to regain its personal lands militarily in
2020 proved the fitting selection of the international coverage instructions with
worldwide help. Azerbaijan garnered worldwide advantages
owing to the insurance policies of neutrality, non-alignment,
non-interference, and rendering all-out attainable help to shut
and faraway nations, in contrast to Armenia’s ostrich insurance policies.
Hopes run excessive for 2023 that Armenia will lastly come to phrases
and go personal a part of the trail to be conducive to the institution of
the long-awaited calm and tranquility within the South Caucasus and as
the Azerbaijani president reiterated “we now have all of the
stipulations to signal a peace treaty with Armenia, which is
attainable primarily based on the well-known 5 rules proposed by
Azerbaijan”.
Azerbaijan is set to additional strengthen its personal navy
energy as additional beefing up the army-building tops each the agenda
of the federal government and the nation. That is notably pivotal in
the broader area supplied Armenia’s open-ended provocations, the place
separatists and opportunists are in vainly rearing their ugly heads
for revenge.
Constructed on its triumphant victory in 2020 when Azerbaijan
demonstrated its navy energy, over the previous two years since
then, the federal government has strengthened its navy potential thanks
to implementing reforms, creating new armed models, and supplying
the military with superior weaponry and tools.
A number of navy operations carried out in 2022 as soon as once more proved
the excessive fight readiness of the military. Operations Farrukh, Revenge,
and the navy clashes alongside Azerbaijan’s border with Armenia in
September 2022 introduced Azerbaijan one other good navy
victory. Consequently, through the border clashes, Azerbaijan has
gained a foothold in lots of strategically advantageous positions.
The yr 2022 additionally noticed the liberation of Lachin and the return
of the villages of Zabukh and Sus underneath Baku’s full management, the place
now in depth building and restoration works occurring to make sure
the return of the folks of Lachin, the primary former displaced
individuals to their native lands.
The continuing return of Aghali residents again to their comfortable
homes in Zangilan District has instilled a way of confidence
that the day will not be far-off when the entire of Karabakh will
embrace all outdated and new residents.
Because the president stated in his December 31 speech “life was
restored within the village of Aghali. The primary undertaking was over, and
the natives of Zangilan returned to their homeland. It is a
historic accomplishment since in lower than two years after the conflict,
really in only a yr and a half, now we have ensured the return of
the primary former displaced individuals to their homeland and created
glorious dwelling circumstances for them”.
This as soon as once more demonstrates the ability of Azerbaijan, its
steadfastness, and the dignity of our nation. This exhibits that our
residents are linked to their ancestral lands. Because the saying
goes, there’s no place like house. Even the youth, kids, and
schoolchildren, who’ve by no means seen these locations, have returned to
the native fatherland with nice enthusiasm.
The Nice Return program is being efficiently carried out.
There are large-scale building works occurring in a lot of
cities. At the beginning, large-scale building is taking
place in Shusha. In parallel, hospitals, faculties, and residential
buildings are underneath building in Aghdam, Fuzuli, Zangilan, and
Lachin. Grasp plans of over ten villages and cities have already
been permitted, and the president personally laid the inspiration of
a number of of them.
“The grasp plans of all of the liberated cities and villages have
been developed and permitted. All the work can be carried out in
line with the grasp plans. All of our plans are mirrored within the
Nice Return program. I’m assured that a whole bunch of hundreds of
previously displaced individuals will return to their homeland within the
nearest future,” the president stated.
In parallel, demining of the liberated territories is underway
regardless of Armenia’s malign intention to torpedo and discourage
Azerbaijan from offering worthy dwelling circumstances earlier than
relocating former IDPs again to their hopes. Armenia hoped to delay
the method, nevertheless, the federal government has been pursuing a
wide-ranging mine-clearance plan to make enormous sources on the
liberated lands accessible.
The opening of the worldwide airport in Zangilan, the second
within the liberated territories with the third within the pipeline, was
one other blow to Armenia’s ill-intentioned and harsh plan.
“Giant-scale work is underway on opening the Zangazur Hall,
with railways and motor roads being constructed. The Zangazur
Hall will certainly be opened, whether or not Armenia needs it or
not. We exhibit our agency dedication, and every part goes
in response to plan. Our demand is cheap and simply. We should and
may have a communication line with the Nakhchivan Autonomous
Republic, which is an integral a part of Azerbaijan,” the president
emphasised.
Azerbaijan’s historic lands with moveable and immovable property
have been fully destroyed. The Armenian fascism spared no efforts
to plunder and raze to the bottom what the natives of those lands
constructed for a whole bunch of years. Armenia even took nice pains to
destroy locations of worship, together with mosques, which are actually
present process substantial restoration and reconstruction.
“I had already talked about that Armenians fully destroyed 65
of 67 mosques through the occupation. The restoration, in reality, the
reconstruction of those mosques, has already begun. The mosques
that want restore are being repaired. I ought to point out that the
Heydar Aliyev Basis performs the main position in setting up and
overhauling our spiritual monuments. Virtually all mosques are
restored on the expense of the Heydar Aliyev Basis,” the
Azerbaijani president stated.
There have been quite a few important developments within the power
sector in 2022. In mid-2022, the Memorandum on Strategic
Partnership within the area of Power was signed between Azerbaijan
and the European Union, which is already being carried out.
Azerbaijan is growing its pure gasoline exports to world
markets.

that’s, an electrical energy cable underneath the Black Sea will enable
Azerbaijan to play a extra important position on this sector.
Azerbaijan will turn out to be the first provider of inexperienced power.
Karabakh and East Zangazur are being handled as inexperienced power
zone.
Azerbaijan’s main renewable power sources are of nice
significance to itself and the world.
“I’ve just lately introduced that the potential of Azerbaijan’s
confirmed renewable power sources is 184,000MW. Some 157,000MW of
this quantity is positioned within the Azerbaijani sector of the Caspian
