On November 10, 2020, President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev, Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan and President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin signed a joint statement on the end of the military conflict in Karabakh. The statement, which literally means the capitulation of Armenia, undoubtedly formalized the glorious victory of the Azerbaijani people in the just struggle that has lasted for 30 years, both militarily and politically. As a result of the determination of the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces Ilham Aliyev and the bravery of our army, our regions occupied by Armenia since 1994, as well as the pearl of Karabakh Shusha were liberated, 4 UN Security Council resolutions were implemented. Undoubtedly, this important political and military victory of Azerbaijan marks the beginning of a new stage in its history. At the expense of the will of the President and the blood of our martyrs, we are entering this new historical stage as a victorious people, a victorious country.
