President of Azerbaijan: Visitors compare Aghdam to Hiroshima

One of the primary tasks facing our government is the restoration of Karabakh and East Zangezur.

As reported by BAKU.WS, this was stated by President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev at the opening ceremony of the 13th session of the World Urban Forum (WUF13).

The head of state recalled that Karabakh and East Zangezur were under Armenian occupation for nearly thirty years, noting that large-scale destruction had taken place there.

The President also emphasized that visitors compare Aghdam to Hiroshima, noting: "We call it the 'Hiroshima of the Caucasus,' since the city practically does not exist."
