official celebration of the national holiday – Republic day – in
`Gulustan’ palace on May 26, 2006 in Baku, Trend reports.
The state head highly assessed the establishment of Azerbaijan
Democratic Republic in 1918 by noting the historical role of the
founders of Azerbaijan state system.
Touching up on the processes taken place in Azerbaijan during USSR
and the repeat collapse threat of the national state system, Ilham
Aliyev noted that the state system was kept due to the force of
ex-president Heydar Aliyev .
The president stressed that next time Azerbaijan turned into a
dynamically developing country in result of the successful policy of
political-economical reforms carried out by the state head.
According to Aliyev, Azerbaijan is strengthening its position not
only in regional, but also international scale. `Economic concepts
are realized in Azerbaijan of which goal is to raise welfare of the
country population,’ told Aliyev.
Besides, the state head touched up on the solution of
Azerbaijan-Armenian Nagorno-Karabakh conflict by stressing that
Azerbaijan supports the peaceful solution of the problem. According
to Aliyev, if Armenia reflects unconstructive position in the
negotiation process, then Azerbaijan `will have to resolve the
question with its own forces’.

not allow the creation of the second Armenian state in its territory’
adding that `all occupied territories of Azerbaijan should be
released unconditionally’.
