Today, the people of Azerbaijan are living their most glorious and legendary period in our centuries-old historical development. President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, Muzaffar Commander-in-Chief Ilham Aliyev managed to turn legends into real history. The Republic of Azerbaijan has never been as strong as it is now, both within the country and in the international world.
The magnificent 20 years that President Ilham Aliyev led the Republic of Azerbaijan with great success is an important historical stage equal to centuries. The great Victory won by the Victorious Supreme Commander Ilham Aliyev with the Iron Fist in the Second Karabakh War is a rare event in the history of polygamous Azerbaijan. The complete and definitive confirmation of the territorial integrity and sovereignty of our independent country is an unattainable peak conquered by President Ilham Aliyev. Holding a military parade in the liberated city of Khankendi of Azerbaijan is a great celebration of the ideals of Heydar Aliyev and Ilham Aliyev. President Ilham Aliyev's kick to the ball during the football competition held by Azerbaijani athletes at the Khankendi Stadium is the password for the brighter future of the Azerbaijani people and our independent state, and at the same time, it is a heavy blow to the enemy.
Like all sections of our people, the scientific community of Azerbaijan and the multi-thousand staff of the National Academy of Sciences sincerely believe that our independent state will achieve greater success under the leadership of our nation's leader Ilham Aliyev. Azerbaijani scientists wholeheartedly support the foreign and domestic policy of President Ilham Aliyev at the current responsible and honorable stage, and they consider it their honorable duty to serve in the transformation of the steps taken by Mr. President into great highways in our country. Scientists, like every citizen of Azerbaijan, are indebted and grateful to the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, Ilham Aliyev, for making our people experience the extraordinary days born from historical events, which are an unparalleled source of pride of the current era.
Every birthday of President Ilham Aliyev, the mighty leader of the modern historical era, the eldest son of our people, is a brighter page of our country's development and wide horizons that open to new happy tomorrows.
We heartily congratulate our honorable President on this significant day for our people, we wish the head of our state good health and new victories in his determined struggle.
On behalf of the collective of Azerbaijan National Academy of Sciences
Academician Isa Habibbayli,
President of ANAS
