Victory Day, celebrated on November 8, is a triumph of national pride, state will, unity, and the unwavering determination of the Azerbaijani people.

This is stated in the statement of the Press Council of Azerbaijan on the occasion of November 8 - Victory Day.

"The historic Victory achieved by the valiant Azerbaijani army under the leadership of the President, victorious Supreme Commander-in-Chief Ilham Aliyev, became a vivid embodiment of ensuring the territorial integrity and sovereignty of our country, national solidarity, and the unity of the people, the state, and the army. This great Victory also demonstrated to the entire world the determination and unwavering will of the Azerbaijani people to restore historical justice.

We proudly note that Azerbaijani journalists also played their special role in achieving this historic Victory. Among our colleagues are those who literally turned the pen into a weapon, participated in combat operations for the Motherland, and were awarded high state honors for their courage. Overall, Azerbaijani media tirelessly fought on the information front throughout the 44-day Patriotic War, making a significant contribution to conveying the just position of our state and people to the international community, and maintaining high morale and the aspiration for victory in society.

Our sacred Victory is an eternal example of national will, patriotism, and devotion to the state that will be passed on to future generations. We pay deep respect to the blessed memory of the heroic sons of the Motherland who gave their lives in the name of this great Victory and became martyrs, and we express our gratitude to the veterans who lost their health in the fight for the liberation of our lands.

The Press Council of Azerbaijan wholeheartedly congratulates the Azerbaijani people and members of the media community on November 8 - Victory Day. May our Victory be eternal and our unity unbreakable!" the statement reads.
