Foundation of Patriotic War Memorial Complex and Museum of Victory to be laid

"On 2 December last year, by my order, 27 September was declared the Day of Remembrance in Azerbaijan. Today, we bow once again to the memory of our heroic martyrs who died in the second Karabakh war and ask Allah to rest their souls in peace," President of Azerbaijan, Victorious Commander-in-Chief Ilham Aliyev said in his address to the nation on September 27 - Remembrance Day.

"We will forever keep our martyrs in our hearts. At the same time, the foundation of the Patriotic War Memorial Complex and the Museum of Victory will be laid today. This is also an issue that was resolved by my order in December last year. A magnificent monument in honor of the heroes of the second Karabakh war will be erected in Baku, in one of the most beautiful places of our city. I must also say that a minute of silence will be declared across the country at 12 o'clock today," the head of state stressed.
