President Aliyev talks about importance of Sugovushan settlement

During the war, the enemy destroyed these stations too,” President Ilham Aliyev said when raising the Azerbaijani flag in Sugovushan settlement of Tartar district on October 3, Report informs, citing AzerTag.

“More than 30 hydroelectric power stations in Kalbajar and Lachin districts were destroyed by the Armenians during and after the war, when they were given time to leave, and these stations are being restored now. In particular, first of all, work has begun on the restoration of the Sugovushan-1 and Sugovushan-2 hydropower plants, which are already in operational condition. They have been rebuilt, built from scratch. This once again shows our strength and policy. We are taking very serious steps to implement infrastructure projects, and although it has been less than a year since the war ended, see how much work is being done.

Sugovushan settlement is of special importance in terms of providing this region with electricity and water. Another important aspect of the liberation of this settlement, I want to say again, is the further strengthening of our moral and psychological superiority,” the head of state said.
